|Consider the two player game that begins with an even length ordered sequence of positive integers. Each player, in turn, removes either the first or last of the remaining integers, ending when all the integers have been removed. A player's score is the sum of the integers that they removed; the winner is the player with the higher score (with a tie if equal scores). Show that Player One has a non-losing strategy, i.e., can always force a tie or a win. | |Consider the two player game that begins with an even length ordered sequence of positive integers.
