Book Synopsis DOTS, LINES and BOXES by : Sweet Revenge®
Download or read book DOTS, LINES and BOXES written by Sweet Revenge® and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-10-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DOTS, LINES AND BOXES is a pencil-and-paper game usually for two players. It was first published in 1889 by French mathematician Édouard Lucas. It has gone by many names including the game of dots, dot to dot grid, boxes, and pigs in a pen. It is a simple game with an objective: the one that "owns" most of the boxes at the end of the game wins. You and your opponent take turns drawing horizontal or vertical lines to connect and close the square boxes. When someone draws a line that completes a square, write your initial inside to win the box. Once all the points have been connected and all the boxes have been closed, you can count the boxes of each player and know the winner. This notebook has 50 pages with templates for building square boxes, 30 pages with templates for triangular boxes and 20 pages with templates for hexagonal boxes.

Book Synopsis Games of No Chance 4 by : Richard J. Nowakowski
Download or read book Games of No Chance 4 written by Richard J. Nowakowski and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-16 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorial games are the strategy games that people like to play, for example chess, Hex, and Go. They differ from economic games in that there are two players who play alternately with no hidden cards and no dice. These games have a mathematical structure that allows players to analyse them in the abstract. Games of No Chance 4 contains the first comprehensive explorations of misère (last player to move loses) games, extends the theory for some classes of normal-play (last player to move wins) games and extends the analysis for some specific games. It includes a tutorial for the very successful approach to analysing misère impartial games and the first attempt at using it for misère partisan games. Hex and Go are featured, as well as new games: Toppling Dominoes and Maze. Updated versions of Unsolved Problems in Combinatorial Game Theory and the Combinatorial Games Bibliography complete the volume.

Download or read book More Games of No Chance written by Richard Nowakowski and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-11-25 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2003 book provides an analysis of combinatorial games - games not involving chance or hidden information. It contains a fascinating collection of articles by some well-known names in the field, such as Elwyn Berlekamp and John Conway, plus other researchers in mathematics and computer science, together with some top game players. The articles run the gamut from theoretical approaches (infinite games, generalizations of game values, 2-player cellular automata, Alpha-Beta pruning under partial orders) to other games (Amazons, Chomp, Dot-and-Boxes, Go, Chess, Hex). Many of these advances reflect the interplay of the computer science and the mathematics. The book ends with a bibliography by A. Fraenkel and a list of combinatorial game theory problems by R. K. Guy. Like its predecessor, Games of No Chance, this should be on the shelf of all serious combinatorial games enthusiasts.

Book Synopsis Games of No Chance by : Richard J. Nowakowski
Download or read book Games of No Chance written by Richard J. Nowakowski and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-11-13 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Nine-Men Morris, in the hands of perfect players, a win for white or for black - or a draw? Can king, rook, and knight always defeat king and two knights in chess? What can Go players learn from economists? What are nimbers, tinies, switches and minies? This book deals with combinatorial games, that is, games not involving chance or hidden information. Their study is at once old and young: though some games, such as chess, have been analyzed for centuries, the first full analysis of a nontrivial combinatorial game (Nim) only appeared in 1902. The first part of this book will be accessible to anyone, regardless of background: it contains introductory expositions, reports of unusual tournaments, and a fascinating article by John H. Conway on the possibly everlasting contest between an angel and a devil. For those who want to delve more deeply, the book also contains combinatorial studies of chess and Go; reports on computer advances such as the solution of Nine-Men Morris and Pentominoes; and theoretical approaches to such problems as games with many players. If you have read and enjoyed Martin Gardner, or if you like to learn and analyze new games, this book is for you.

Download or read book Games of No Chance 3 written by Michael H. Albert and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-05-29 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating look at combinatorial games, that is, games not involving chance or hidden information, offers updates on standard games such as Go and Hex, on impartial games such as Chomp and Wythoff's Nim, and on aspects of games with infinitesimal values, plus analyses of the complexity of some games and puzzles and surveys on algorithmic game theory, on playing to lose, and on coping with cycles. The volume is rounded out with an up-to-date bibliography by Fraenkel and, for readers eager to get their hands dirty, a list of unsolved problems by Guy and Nowakowski. Highlights include some of Siegel's groundbreaking work on loopy games, the unveiling by Friedman and Landsberg of the use of renormalization to give very intriguing results about Chomp, and Nakamura's "Counting Liberties in Capturing Races of Go." Like its predecessors, this book should be on the shelf of all serious games enthusiasts.

Book Synopsis Games, Puzzles and Math Excursions by : Chandru Arni
Download or read book Games, Puzzles and Math Excursions written by Chandru Arni and published by Prowess Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-23 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The games presented here are mainly 2-person strategic board games and Solitaire Puzzles, when alone. There is a welcome difference between strategic board games and puzzles. A puzzle has a solution and once you’ve solved it, it is not that interesting any more. A strategy game can be played again and again. Chess, the “King of all Board Games”, is not included here as it forms a subject by itself, but there are a few pre-chess puzzles. Bridge, the “Queen of all Card Games”, is also not included as Card games and Dice games involve a certain element of luck; the games here are not based on chance or probability. Apart from Games and Puzzles, there is a small chapter on Mathematical Excursions. These are explorations of non mathematicians like me into the ways of thinking and understanding patterns that mathematicians visualise and analyse for sheer pleasure without any monetary or practical benefit. How can a chess knight’s move over a chess board be beneficial to anybody? But this exploration has been going on for 2000 years. Also, whereas Pythagoras’ Theorem was of great benefit to society, what will proving Fermat’s Theorem accomplish? For a mathematician, the overriding influence of numbers becomes his aim in life.
