| abstract: | The purpose of this paper is to solve a special class of combinational games consisting of two-pile counter pickup games for
which the maximum number of counters that can be removed on each
successive move changes during the play of the games. Two players
alternate moving. Each player in his turn first chooses one of the
piles, and his choice of piles can change from move to move. He then
removes counters from this chosen pile. A function

The first source gives you the `gzipped' PostScript, the second the plain PostScript and the third the format for the Adobe accrobat reader. Depending on the installation of your web browser, at least one of these should (after some amount of time) pop up a window for you that shows the full article. If this is not the case, you should contact your system administrator to install your browser correctly.
Due to limitations of your local software, the two formats may show up differently on your screen. If eg you use xpdf to visualize pdf, some of the graphics in the file may not come across. On the other hand, pdf has a capacity of giving links to sections, bibliography and external references that will not appear with PostScript.
