A++ rank in readme?

[maxo99]

Describe the bug

Not certain if displaying A++ on the example in repo should be showing a rank that is not part of the ranking system. Currently pulled in from this image: @anuraghazra if you have the capability to regenerate with S rank ( or possibly regenerate with couple different examples) this could improve understanding.

just to check if I'm understanding this correctly, the "A++" is meant to be a "S"?

The readme (above the image) has a section stating:

Available ranks are S (top 1%), A+ (12.5%), A (25%), A- (37.5%), B+ (50%), B (62.5%), B- (75%), C+ (87.5%) and C (everyone). This ranking scheme is based on the Japanese academic grading system. The global percentile is calculated as a weighted sum of percentiles for each statistic (number of commits, pull requests, reviews, issues, stars, and followers), based on the cumulative distribution function of the exponential and the log-normal distributions. The implementation can be investigated at src/calculateRank.js. The circle around the rank shows 100 minus the global percentile.

And the codebase for the calculator has S not A++. ref: anuraghazra/github-readme-stats_calculateRank

I feel the bug you are point out is not related to the code

code where the ranking is defined doesn't include A++

ref: anuraghazra/github-readme-stats_calculateRank line 69 - const LEVELS = ["S", "A+", "A", "A-", "B+", "B", "B-", "C+", "C"];

ref image -

there is no mention of A++ in the whole codebase

the issue and the image you are referring doesn't exist with the same account

https://github.com/anuraghazra

the image @maxo99 might have mentioned might not be generated by the code in reference instead some other repo code might be used

" this issue might not be related to this codebase "

Hi @Aryan27-max ,

The image I provided was from https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats?tab=readme-ov-file#all-inbuilt-themes which is just displaying the available themes.

So it's just a inconsistency between what is shown in the documentation and what can actually be generated. Since there is no A++ in the actual grading scale.

This is not at all urgent.

Documentation is critical for adoption and usability! I'd love to help improve this. 📚

📖 Documentation Enhancement Strategy

What Makes Great Documentation:

1. Clear Getting Started: Step-by-step onboarding for new users
2. Comprehensive Examples: Real-world usage patterns and code samples
3. API Reference: Complete parameter docs with types and examples
4. Architecture Overview: High-level system design and data flow
5. Troubleshooting Guide: Common issues and solutions
6. Best Practices: Recommended patterns and anti-patterns

Content Areas I Can Contribute:

• ✍️ Written Content: Clear, concise explanations
• 💻 Code Examples: Working, tested examples
• 🎨 Diagrams: Architecture diagrams, flowcharts, sequence diagrams
• 🎥 Tutorials: Step-by-step guides with screenshots
• 🔧 Interactive Demos: CodeSandbox/StackBlitz examples
• 📋 Cheat Sheets: Quick reference guides

My Approach:

• User-centric: Written for different skill levels
