I really like the way you get the deck composition bar graph and the TC (RC and decks yet to be played) and the actual advantage all up at the same time that the deck composition is up. You can see how all ranks are represented for each actual advantage.
What is the -0.001 below the player advantage?
You could incorporate an optimal betting ramp suggestion for bet size based on the actual advantage rather than TC estimation of advantage. You seem like you might need some teaching on the money management part of the game. There is a proper balance between risk and reward by scaling bets to to the size of your advantage. The sweet spot between risk and increased advantage bet size increases is determined by your risk of losing your BR and the size of your bankroll. You will have little trouble getting help here to speed up the learning curve.
An app like that would be great. You could see the optimal bets for both for your count's estimated advantage and the advantage for the particular deck composition represented in the rank bar graph.
I recommend an option to the bar graph representation for either shows actual ranks (as you did) or by card value were the 10-K are all listed as one bar, "T", instead of individually because they are all ten value cards.
It looks like you are on the right track. THe software guys may be willing to help you achieve or make sure you have sufficient accuracy to all the values displayed. I guess that is a trade off between accuracy and speed. That could have optional settings as well. Some people may just want to be able to simulate play fast and others may be more interested in slower, more accurate displays. Most people would probably find uses for the extreme settings on both ends of that equation. Whether they are practicing quick decision making or ingesting all the potential info on the screen.
I bet Tarzan will love this device. You might do well to let him test its potential for using the extra information on the display.
People would want to be able to change the rules, number of decks both being used in the game and behind the cut card. People might like an exact visual bar graph of the discarded cards as they accumulate set in a discard tray for deck estimation skill practice.
I think if you incorporate as much of these suggestions into your app, it will appeal to a lot of people that are serious about a blackjack training. device. As long as the accuracy was sufficient your app would be really something. People that learn quickest as a visualization will love this thing.
If it would work for any counting system or at least the most popular level 1 counts to level 2 counts, both ace reckoned counts and ace neutral counts, both balanced and unbalance counts. The appeal just reached everyone.
I thought of another really cool feature. If it allowed you to set various deck composition in the bar graph so you could see how whatever configuration you wanted was for all your outputs.
Add a digit to the TC display. People use different techniques for rounding.
