What is useful in BaziApp?

I often get queries and three of the following questions are the most common ones.

"Why will anyone will pay for Bazi software?!"

"Why is your software special when others are free"

"Others apps can determine the strength, so where is the beef"

I have been labelled as "proto-capitalist" as an insult, but I think it really sounds pleasing to the ears.  

As a proto-capitalist, let me list the interesting features of the Bazi application below.

1.  A good Bazi software should use numerical computation methods to determine the stems and branches.  You probably do not want to be suckered into paying for updates which on hindsight, is a good idea.

Well, I have extended the calendar beyond 2100, get this version before the model changes.....




2.  The natal interactions should be displayed clearly as indicated below.  This is an important feature because 97% of the Bazi software does not have this feature.  One of the best excuses given is "the programmer do not understand Bazi theory, hence he or she has kindly refrained from bias regarding the various different school of thought."




3.   If a Bazi application is able to determine the interactions correctly, it should be able to determine the chart strength with high accuracy rate.  98% of the known Bazi software are quiet on this feature.

4.   Now comes the tricky feature, it will be nice if a software can highlight the potential rewarding and challenging decades.  98% of the known Bazi software choke on this.  

For example, for a weak Jia day master chart, why does the computer thinks that Ding (output) pillar should be rated green?

Keen and sharper eyes should see another strange color interpretation which I will not highlight clearly below.


5.   Suppose you want to perform back-testing, with the chart be interpreted as "strong" , a competent Bazi app should have a feature to override the artificial intelligence.





6.   Suppose if the chart is interpreted as "strong", the tables will be turned upside down.  However, this is the first level computer AI, there are other considerations that need to be considered before reaching a final conclusion on the highly probable outcome.


7.  English shorthand for those who have problems understanding Mandarin script.  I refrained from using strange names like 'directional combinations'.




FAQ
Brother Keong, why don't you give us an example where the month is a earth element?
Good question, you are after the 土星诀 or you know there is such a thing literally translated as "Earth Star Formula".  Go buy the app and you should be able to figure that nugget by yourself.

How accurate is the AI?
Up to 80%

Any real examples of the weird cases that even grandmaster(s) or conventional theory fumble?
Yes.  When you have good luck, the really difficult cases will show up and give you a good beating.

How does Bazi compare with Zi Wei?
That will be another future blog entry.

Why are the decades starting age different for some apps?
A Bazi software developer may simply divide the Jie period by 3 without taking into account other considerations because his sponsors said that is the easiest approach, hence resulting in different starting ages for various packages.

Where is 化气格?
If you run into one, please charge them double if they can afford it.

What can we do with the chart strength if it match the life history?
Useful applications could involve Qi Men Dun Jia, Date Selection or Geomancy.
