Our Journey's First Steps

2 Undergraduate College Students...
One Path of Discovery


Hello and welcome to the next blog in the "Journey/Exploring" series: Journey Into Game Theory!

This time "the game" has changed as I am working in collaboration with another student in order to research the many aspects of Game Theory - a branch of mathematics that analyzes decision-making in terms of profit/loss, active/passive strategies, and cooperation/competition.


How are we going to accomplish a presentation on Game Theory when we both know nothing about it?

Research - And lots of it!
  • We have taken quite a few books out of our college library to help us begin to understand the concepts and origination of Game Theory as well as important definitions.
  • We are accessing many websites that are teaching us important Game Theory related topics such as "Understanding the Payoff Matrix", "Systems of Game Theory", and "Game Theory in the News".
  • We have discovered the iPhone app, Nash Equilibrium Calculator - to be explained in its own blog post.
Please look forward to our explanations and interesting research articles and websites to take the journey with us!
