Overview

Using function play_game, simulates a game for of N strategies competing against each other (where N is the appropriate number of players for the game).

Implementable games are "deterministic" games where each player knows the possible rewards for each round at decision time, with the only uncertainty being the action of other players.

Rewards are defined as a multi-dimensional array where your action is the first index and rivals are the remaining indexes. For example, a 2 player game:

In this case:

• If you acted with action 1 and your rival also chose action 1, you would both earn 5 points;
• If you acted with action 1 and your rival chose action 2, you would earn 0 and they would earn 10.
