explaining Olympic gymnastics scores

UPDATE: Some think the Panel A-score assessment is wrong. Check the comments.

Dominique Dawes on Yahoo! Sports uses Shawn Johnson’s Floor routine at the 2008 U.S. VISA championships as a sample:

Johnson’s total score was determined by adding her difficulty score of 6.6 and her execution score of 9.6 for a 16.2. Her high difficulty skills and solid performance allowed her to capture another national title on the floor.
