(1 pt) We shall denote a position in three-pile Nim by (a,b,c), so that there are a chips in the first pile, b in the second, and c in the third.
Given the following position in Nim, list all winning moves. As an example, if the piles are (2,2,2) then we can list all winning moves as (0,2,2),(2,0,2),(2,2,0).
For game (20, 21, 28), the winning moves are:
I thought it should be (20,4,16), (0,20,20), (20,20,0), because when you calculate their nim sum you get (0,0,0), but this answer is incorrect. Can anyone help me understand what I am doing wrong?
Thank you!
