Swimming
Every swimming calculator on CalcEngines — rates and averages, scoring and standings, and plain explanations of the rules behind them, each one naming the governing body and the season its numbers come from.
8 calculators in this section
- Relay Takeover and Reaction Time CalculatorThe margin between an incoming swimmer's touch and the outgoing swimmer's feet leaving the block, to the hundredth of a second, with the World Aquatics rule and the timing manufacturer's published tolerance either side of it. Exactly zero is legal; negative is a relay break.
- Short Course and Long Course InterpreterWhether a swimming time can be set beside another one, given the pool each was swum in — and what World Aquatics does instead of publishing a conversion, which is keep two sets of records and two sets of points base times.
- Stroke Rate and Distance Per Stroke CalculatorDistance per stroke, stroke rate and velocity from a counted stretch of swimming — a distance, a time and a tally of arm cycles. The three are locked together by an exact identity, and the page prints it so you can check it.
- Swimming Medley Stroke Order InterpreterWhich stroke is swum on which leg of a medley — and they are two different orders. An individual medley starts with butterfly and a medley relay starts with backstroke, both from World Aquatics' own Part Two Articles 9.1 and 9.2.
- Swimming Pace and Speed CalculatorSwimming pace per 100 metres from a distance and a time, with the speed, the number of lengths and the number of turns beside it, and the pool length taken as an input rather than assumed. The headline is in seconds because the calculator cannot print a colon.
- Swimming Pool and Lane Dimensions InterpreterA measured pool length against the World Aquatics window it has to sit in, which depends on how many touch panels are fitted — plus the lane widths, depths, markings, flags and water temperature the facilities rules specify.
- Swimming Split Times CalculatorA target pace per 100 metres turned into a finishing time, a split at every wall and a pair of halves — even, or negatively split by a percentage you choose. The pool length is an input, because a split in swimming is read at a turn.
- World Aquatics Points CalculatorWorld Aquatics swimming points from the published closed form, not an interpolated table: 1000 × (base time ÷ time swum)³, truncated. The base time is yours to supply, because it is reissued every year and differs by event, course and sex.
