[Question]: Season ID format

[8W9aG]

NBA API Version

1.6.1

Issue

The SEASON_ID column contains a format where there is an integer at 0th index of the string and then the year in the format of YYYY after that. Does anyone know what the integer before that represents? I am assuming it is some kind of season type but I couldn't find an authoritative source for the mapping from season types to these integers.

I don't have an answer, but it looks like this issue/suggestion is related and might be helpful #455

Edit: this has even more info #457
