Euclid's Game

At the beginning of this simple game, the applet below displays a board with two numbers. At any time you can use the edit control to input a positive difference of any two numbers already present on the board. The loser is the player unable to make a move. If you wish the computer to move first, check the box "Please start".

 

This applet requires Sun's Java VM 2 which your browser may perceive as a popup. Which it is not. If you want to see the applet work, visit Sun's website at http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp, download and install Java VM and enjoy the applet.
