gambit-enumpure

Name

gambit-enumpure -- Searches for pure-strategy Nash equilibria in a game.

Synopsis

gambit-enumpure [-S] [-P] [-h] [-q]

DESCRIPTION

gambit-enumpure reads a game on standard input and searches for pure-strategy Nash equilibria.

OPTIONS

-S

By default, the program uses behavior strategies for extensive games; this switch instructs the program to use reduced strategic game strategies for extensive games. (This has no effect for strategic games, since a strategic game is its own reduced strategic game.)

-P

By default, the program computes all pure-strategy Nash equilibria in an extensive game. This switch instructs the program to find only pure-strategy Nash equilibria which are subgame perfect. (This has no effect for strategic games, since there are no proper subgames of a strategic game.)

-h

Prints a help message listing the available options.

-q

Suppresses printing of the banner at program launch.

USAGE

CAVEATS

Not all games have Nash equilibria in pure strategies.
