18. Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 9 + X + Y -
Z Where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9) Alok would like to
maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single
digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then
chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes
the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value
of N at the end of the game would be.
a) 0
b) 27
c) 18
d) 20
The Q's concept is same but the equation of N's is changing.
19. Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 20 coins are stacked one above
the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to
bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in
the stack.Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top
to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0-move
implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a
player makes a 2-move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold
coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the
gold coins the third coin from the top. Then
a) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 1-move.
b) In order to win, Alice's first move should be a 0-move.
c) In order to win, Alice's first move can be a 0-move or a 1-move.
d) Alice has no winning strategy.
Ans: d
