BadgeGen calculates all points to two decimal points.
Values above can be assumed
to be exact
(ie: 292=292.00)
A point total equal to an upper bound will result in the higher level belt (for example, if you
have 292.00 points, you will receive a black belt - not a brown belt).
The Golden Black-Belt is only awarded if the point total is greater than or equal to 400.00 points.
