Na netu sam nasao nesto zanimljivo iz teorije igara pod naslovom "Angel Problem" (ovo nema veze s Buffy-ubojicom vampira); pa sam se osjecao duznim da ga vama urucim; pa sam malo kopirao i paste-ao (sto objasnjava zasto je na engleskom). Problem je nerjesen, pa ako ga netko rjesi, to ce biti jako dobro za njega. :D
In a game proposed by J. H. Conway, a devil chases an angel on an infinite chessboard. At each move, the devil can eliminate one of the squares, and the angel can make a leap in any direction, covering a distance of at most n squares. Here, n is a positive integer previously fixed, and is called the "power" of the angel. The devil's aim is to trap the angel on an island surrounded by a hole of width at least n.
Can the angel indefinitely escape the devil, if his power is sufficiently high? Can the devil defeat an angel of any finite power?
