Slashes and crosses recording spares and strikes.
Also known as: Ten pin scoresheet, Strike and spare marking
A bowling scoresheet uses an X for a strike and a slash for a spare, and the scoring is not additive: a strike is worth ten plus the next two balls, which is why a frame's score cannot be written until later frames are bowled.
Records each frame with an X for a strike and a diagonal slash for a spare, with numerals for other counts.
