I'm playing the Game of Nim with a colleague. He's an old hand and knows
all the patterns by heart. I do not. I can't beat him.
But I can do this:
winNim =: (* 0&<)@(- (~:"1 ~:/)&.#:)
So if you have a Nim board like this:
1 1 1 1 1
1 1 1 1
1 1 1

For information about J foru
If there are 38 people in a line and every 4th on is killed, where would you
stand?
josephus =: dyad define NB. explicit form, assume executioner starts at
position 0
NB. use: SKIP josephus NUMBER_OF_PRISONERS
N =: y
K =: N | x
EXECUTIONER =: 0
PRISONERS =: i. N
kill =: ] #~ (~
In my experience I find that it is useful that the nub, self classify and
key cell orderings are the same.
