👉 Defeat math is a method used in game theory to determine the optimal strategy for players when the outcome of a game depends on the actions of multiple participants, each aiming to maximize their own payoff. In a two-player game, for instance, the concept involves calculating the probability that one player wins given the other's strategy and vice versa. The key idea is to identify a Nash equilibrium, where no player can improve their outcome by unilaterally changing their strategy, assuming the other player's strategy remains unchanged. This equilibrium is often found using mathematical tools like linear programming or iterative algorithms, and it provides a clear, mathematically grounded approach to predicting the likely outcome of strategic interactions where the result is not predetermined by a single player's actions alone.
