Consider a game in which two players, Fred and Barney, take turns removing matchsticks from a pile. They start with 21 matchsticks, and Fred goes first. On each turn, each player may remove either one, two, or three matchsticks. The player to remove the last matchstick wins the game. (a) Suppose there are only 5 matchsticks left, and it is Fred’s turn. What move should Fred make to guarantee himself victory? Explain your reasoning. (b) Suppose there are 10 matchsticks...

Exercise 1. Two players, 1 and 2, take turns choosing numbers; 1 goes first. On his turn, a player may choose any number between 1 and 10, inclusive, and this number is added to a running total. When the running total of both players’ choices reaches 100, the game ends. The player whose choice of number takes the total to exactly 100 is the winner. (i) Who wins the game when we solve it using backwards induction? (ii) Provide a...

Two players Anvitha (A) and Buhlebenkosi (B) are playing a game. At each round, A wins with probability p ∈ (0, 1) and loses with probability 1 − p. The game ends if one player has won two more rounds than the other. (a) Compute the probability that A wins the game eventually. (b) Compute the mean total number of rounds played when the game ends. (c) Compute the variance of the total number of rounds played.
