Harvard Strategy
What’s the name of this game?
i’ve been trying to look it up. this game takes strategy and logic.. and i’ve been trying to figure it out. but it doesn’t help when i don’t know the name!
my substitute teacher, a retired man with a PhD from harvard is always challenging us. and he always wins. i want to beat him one day. sooo..
it’s a two people game.
set up: you draw 5 columns of lines on a piece of paper. In the first column, 5 lines. 2nd column, 4 lines. 3rd column, 3 lines. 2nd column, 2 lines. last column one line.
goal: not erase the last line.
how to play: you take turns with the other person erasing lines from one column. you can erase as many lines within that column as long as you don’t erase any in other columns.
what’s the name? or better do you know how to win?
the name of the game is NIM
to win you need to leave the other player with a nim sum of zero, that’s pretty easy to find on the internet, although pretty lengthy to explain here. Basically you write each row in binary and add them without carries and the sum needs to be zeros.
