A Game of Stones

Algorithmically Speaking - #2: Let's learn how to beat the Computer... or just accept we cannot win against it.

Hello there!

Today we are going to be diving into games and some of the mathematical theories behind them.

A simple game of stones will be the perfect excuse for me to let you know about general Game Theory and Graphs.

At the end of the post, you will find some algorithmic challenges so you can try and apply some of the topics that I will explain today. Feel free to skip to that part if you think you already have the necessary skills to solve them.

Let’s begin!
