This doesn't actually work - in this simple rotation algorithm, the rotating teams which are 2 slots apart (2/4, 3/5) will never play.mdryden– mdryden2018-06-06 20:50:23 +00:00Commented Jun 6, 2018 at 20:50

@PieterB I was thinking that it would work, but it actually doesn't work if there are an odd number of teams, as the ones that are right next to each other (like 4 and 5) will never play each other. You can see it pretty easily at the end with the 1, and also at the other end because you have the dangling team (with the bye) Here's a good response that also deals with the odd number: stackoverflow.com/a/6649732/6489306ragingasiancoder– ragingasiancoder2018-07-04 22:08:22 +00:00Commented Jul 4, 2018 at 22:08

@ragingasiancoder if there's an odd number of teams, add a dummy team. The answer you linked describes the exact same solution as I presented.Pieter B– Pieter B2018-07-05 06:37:41 +00:00Commented Jul 5, 2018 at 6:37

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
