What is the official FIG rulebook for judging gymnastics skills called?

The official FIG rulebook for judging gymnastics skills is called the Code of Points.

Published by the Fédération Internationale de Gymnastique, or FIG, the Code of Points explains how routines are evaluated and how individual skills receive difficulty values. It also sets standards for composition, execution, artistry, deductions, judging panels, and competition procedures. FIG issues discipline-specific versions for areas such as men's and women's artistic gymnastics, rhythmic gymnastics, and acrobatic gymnastics.

In artistic gymnastics, the modern system generally separates difficulty from execution. The D-score reflects the value of skills and connections, while the E-score begins from a standard execution baseline and subtracts errors. This is why the Code of Points is more than a simple list of tricks. A frequent misconception is that one universal code governs every gymnastics competition: NCAA, national, club, and FIG competitions can use different rules or editions. The code is revised periodically, so skill values and judging details can change between Olympic cycles.
