BATTLE OF NUMBERS

The game starts with an imaginary pile of objects, coins for
example. You and your opponent (the computer) alternately
remove objects from the pile. You specify in advance the
minimum and maximum number of objects that can be taken on
each turn. You also specify in advance how winning is
defined: 1. To take the last object or 2. To avoid taking
the last object. You may also determine whether you or the
computer go first.
