Interactively simulate and engage with game theory
Game theory is a key tool for analyzing strategic interactions and decision-making across diverse areas. It enhances our comprehension of human behavior in real-world situations, encompassing both cooperation and competition.
"if you are going to interact once you are better off defect otherwise you should consider cooperating" --- Unknown
Inspired by Robert Axelrod's 1984 The Evolution of Cooperation and Veritasium's take on the topic
