    (Even number participants)
    ----------
    n = no of participants
    matches = n(n-1)/2
    rounds = n-1
    byes = 0

    Eg.
    participants = 10
    matches = 10(10-1)/2 = 45
    rounds = 10-1 = 9
    byes = 0

    (Odd number participants)
    ---------------------
    n = no of participants
    matches = n(n-1)/2
    rounds = n
    byes = 0

    Eg.
    participants = 7
    matches = 7(7-1)/2 = 21
    rounds = 7
    byes = 0


    ***** single eliminaiton macthes *****
    n = no of participants
    matches = n-1
    rounds = 2^x = x
    byes = n-2^x

    Eg 1.
    participants = 6
    matches = 6-1 = 5
    rounds = 2^3 = 3 **(6<(8=2^3))**
    byes = 8-6 = 2


    Eg 2.
    participants = 9
    matches = 9-1 = 8
    rounds = 2^4 = 4 **(9<(16=2^4))**
    byes = 16-9 = 5
