Can anyone help with explaining the sample test case for 'Stones Game' on A2Oj, Ladder 2, problem no. 5, problemId = 8
It says, m player, n stones and need to find whether player with index idx has a optimal strategy to win the game or not? Yes/No answer to be given.
But, if we look at example 1
2 2 2
Here, players=2, stones = 2 and Answer to find for player index =2. Let's call players by name A and B, so we have following scenarios
A | B | A | B
0 1 ->> B wins
1 1 ->> B wins
2 0 ->> A WINS
The answer to this test case given on a2oj is YES, but clearly we can see that B can't win in 3rd case. Am I missing something here? Can anyone please help me out?
Thanks,
