I got the entries for the payoff table but now face another
problem: how do I work with negatives?
For maximax you pick the largest of each row, so -300, -1575, and
-2650. The answer would be -300.
For maximin you'd pick the largest minimum. Wouldn't this also work
out to -300 (since you're trying to find the minimum at or above
zero?
Appreciate your help. :)
