Walk Score is a type of automated efficiency model focused on location efficiency. A Walk Score, as well as a Bike Score and a Transit Score, may be assigned to a particular address or an entire region, and the company maintains a ranking of the most walkable cities in the United States. Products for computer programmers include Travel Time API.
Walk Score's algorithm awards maximum points to amenities within 5 minutes' walk (.25 mi), and a decay function assigns points for amenities up to 30 minutes away. [57] Scores are normalized from 0 to 100. Walkonomics was a web app that combines open data and crowdsourcing to rate and review the walkability of each street.
The test takes 3–5 minutes and consists of walking 6 meters between 2 parallel lines measured 8”, 12” and 15” across in width. The test is scored based on number of stepping errors, i.e. stepping on a line (+1) or stepping over a line (+2), where a higher score denotes decrease performance and total time to perform walk. [2]

The wait/walk dilemma occurs when waiting for a bus at a bus stop, when the duration of the wait may exceed the time needed to arrive at a destination by another means, especially walking. Some work on this problem was featured in the 2008 "Year in Ideas" issue of The New York Times Magazine .
The test score is the time taken on the test, in minutes. This can also be converted to an estimated maximal oxygen uptake score using the calculator below and the following formulas, where the value "T" is the total time completed (expressed in minutes and fractions of a minute e.g. 9 minutes 15 seconds = 9.25 minutes).
The Timed Up and Go test (TUG) is a simple test used to assess a person's mobility and requires both static and dynamic balance. [1]It uses the time that a person takes to rise from a chair, walk three meters, turn around 180 degrees, walk back to the chair, and sit down while turning 180 degrees.
"pi" (or "calculator" and pressing P on the keyboard) and clicking the "π" symbol will start a memory game similar to Simon, in which the calculator highlights the digits of pi and prompts one to repeat the sequence. The sequence gets longer every turn. The high-score can be stored but will reset after reloading the page.
