10a Mathematical game of strategy for two plyers (3) Could be nim or nam. Any ideas of which ?

[Mamyalynne]

I put - Nim

[donny48]

Nim is a mathematical game of strategy in which two players take turns removing objects from distinct heaps. On each turn, a player must remove at least one object, and may remove any number of objects provided they all come from the same heap.

i can't find a definition for nam meaning a game of strategy

[Mamyalynne]

I never looked, just knew the game - where did you find 'Nam' Farr?

[Farrwest]

Thanks to all. Got muddled with nim and nam in Chambers!
