COMMENTS
Independently determined, these numbers agree with the ranges in the Number of strikes/Number of spares grid of the Balmoral Software page. Note that a(0)=190 > A127993(10)=180; i.e., it's possible to get a higher score with no strikes (and ten optimal (9 pins, then 1 pin) spares followed by 9 pins on the last delivery) than with ten strikes misfortunately timed.
EXAMPLE
a(12) = 300 as twelve strikes in a bowling game (tenpins) results in a score of 30 for each of the ten frames, giving 300 total, the maximum possible score.
