The Game of Relaxations

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

This is not to be taken too seriously.

Two or three players compete in the solution by relaxations of three linear equations

R1 ≡ a1x + b1y + c1z + d1 = 0,

R2 ≡ a2x + b2y + c2z + d2 = 0,

R3 ≡ a3x + b3y + c3z + d3 = 0.

Before the equations are formed each player adopts one of the residuals Rlt R2, R3. When there are two players one residual remains unadopted.
