Abstract: | This article deals with a two‐person zero‐sum game in which player I chooses in integer interval 1, N] two integer intervals consisting of p and q points where p + q < N, and player II chooses an integer point in 1, N]. The payoff to player I equals 1 if the point chosen by player II is at least in one of the intervals chosen by player II and 0 otherwise. This paper complements the results obtained by Ruckle, Baston and Bostock, Lee, Garnaev, and Zoroa, Zoroa and Fernández‐Sáez. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Naval Research Logistics 48: 98–106, 2001 |
