+'s are for wins
-'s are for losses
='s are for draws
Tal's record against Fischer would just be called 4-2-5 in every other sport on the planet, but we chess players love our little symbols.
Can someone explain this to me?

Actually I like the way it's done in chess better, because 4-2-5 could be interpreted as 4 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses.
I pulled this from another thread...
"The overall score of Tal vs Fischer is +4 -2 =5 in Tal's favor."
What do the numbers actually mean?
