Grades Comparison table

The following table is based on the one collated by Ellert (ekoperen@cs.vu.nl). This version is slightly different, in that most of the grading systems have been made more linear - the comparisons should be just the same, though. Any comments on or corrections to the table are welcome.

You can also read more about the UK Grading system.
