chess.com rating system

i was wondering - what is chess.com's rating system ? is it elo ?

in anyway, what i wanted to know is - how many points would someone benefit from a win against someone who is 100 points higher and how much would he benefit from a win against someone that is 100 points lower ?

thanks

okay, i solved it, there's a calculator for it on FIDE's site..

i just saw chess.com is actually using the Glicko rating system, how is that being calculated ? didn't find any calculators for it..

k, i'm not so good in math, can you please help me with the original post's question ? my RD is low (i completed about 37 games in the daily time frame), and my rating is 1431

its not related to ELO because Hikaru has got like 3500 ratings and hes rated roughly 2780 ELO

Impossible to say without knowing your opponent's Glicko RD as well.  It's complicated...

Oh and I suck at math too.  The formula is awesomely long and difficult.

i see,

okay, thanks, i appreciate the feedback

? that citation goes over the formula, how could u not understand it?

well, maybe if i'd put the pedal to the metal i would've known how to calculate it, but what can i say, it's too much work i guess, don't get offended, it's how it is for me...hope you understand...
