Optional: create a helper object

const result = Object.freeze({ win: 1, loss: 0, draw: 0.5 });

.change() - rating change based on opponentRating and result

const { change } = elo.change(2200, result.win); // 15.19 ...

.probability() - decimal probability of winning vs opponentRating

const probability = elo.probability(2200); // 0.24 (or 24%)
