In artistic gymnastics, there are typically five judges scoring each performance. These judges evaluate gymnasts based on their execution, difficulty, and overall presentation. Scores are computed by combining the "D-score" for difficulty and the "E-score" for execution, with deductions made for mistakes or errors. The final score reflects the gymnast's abilities and artistry, critiqued by highly trained professionals. This system ensures a thorough assessment of each performance during competitions, particularly at the Olympic level.
