i think we should pull np.random.normal() out of the lpSum constraint and instead include as a value in player_dict a pre-sampled array of length n lineups like:

player_dict[player]['fp_array'] = np.random.normal(self.player_dict[player]['Fpts'],
((self.player_dict[player]['StdDev']/self.player_dict[player]['Fpts'], size=num_lineups)

then under line 157 in the opto we would do

    self.problem += plp.lpSum([p['fp_array'][i] for p in player_dict] * self.randomness_amount / 100)) 

(or whatever the correct syntax would be)

Hey, really cool code you have here? How exactly does your GPP process work like? I see from a quick glance that you essentially modify the optimal lineup? Is there any way I could reach out with more questions such as Twitter?

Hello! Great work on this, has been fun to play with so far! However ran into issues with

Im assuming because of import nfl_optimizer within import.py but removing that fixes.

Not sure what I am doing wrong...any ideas?

Fanduel made changes this season for player position availability

Are there any other changes that need to be made for the updated Swaptimizer to function properly?

Getting the following error when running it and have not changed any other files aside from the Swaptimizer and Opto from latest branch

Hey Chanzer, I love the idea of your tools and I am a huge DFS fan whos been looking for a tool like this, specifically the excel sheet that shows optimal, top 10% win% etc, However I keep getting an error when I am trying to run optimal lineups to receive outputs that show those stats. The following message keeps occurring : PS C:\Users\colin\OneDrive\Desktop\NBA-DFS-Tools-master\src> python .\main.py dk opto 1000 0 rand

Is there an issue with my JSON file? And would there be a code I could input that would allow for me to input my lineups, and receive the output in the excel sheet? Sorry if all of these questions are ridiculous but thank you so much for all you do!

Have you thought about expanding to all sports, and creating a GUI.

Also, I think it would be cool to have a db of FanDuel contest history. To see what top players are doing day to day. I know fantasy cruncher has rewind for DK, but nothing for FD since they done make csv’s of contests available. So you will need to scrape contest data from FD. I think this could be huge. If you want help let me know I started attempting this but it def needs upgrades.

Sorry, another issue i am having is i set the Opto lineups to 500 and it creates about 12-40 each time

I followed your video and instructions i thought very well. Not sure exactly what's going on.

Getting this error...lineup optimizer works gpp simulator doesn't.

Love your simulator but it seems like you have a bug with hyphenated players in FD (Luwawu-Cabarrot and Anthony-Towns tonight for example). It optimizes with them but includes them as zeroes across the board except for 0.1% for ownership.

Hello,
I ran into an error when trying to run your opto...any idea? See screenshot

Hi,

I'm a FD player and had some questions about the gpp sim process.

1. I should run the opto first to generate a set # of lineups then run those against the contest im in to see optimal outcomes correct?
2. I cant seem to gather the contest structure for FD is it the same csv structure for DK? Any way to automate that process?
3. What is the process for running a large ggp tourney? For example the field size for a 0.05 contest is over 200,000 with a max of 150 entries. does having premade lineups speed up the process of calculating those numbers?

I appreciate your time in responding! Awesome tool.

First, big thanks for creating this!

I can't seem to successfully run the sim, for either FD or DK. The error I get is the following:

Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Where do you get the player data needed in CSV on fanduel?
