pygambit.nash.lp_solve#

pygambit.nash.lp_solve(game: Game, rational: bool = True, use_strategic: bool = False) NashComputationResult#

Compute Nash equilibria of a two-player constant-sum game using linear programming.

Parameters:
  • game (Game) – The game to compute equilibria in.

  • rational (bool, default True) – Compute using rational numbers. If False, using floating-point arithmetic. Using rationals is more precise, but slower.

  • use_strategic (bool, default False) – Whether to use the strategic form. If True, always uses the strategic representation even if the game’s native representation is extensive.

Returns:

res – The result represented as a NashComputationResult object.

Return type:

NashComputationResult

Raises:

RuntimeError – If game has more than two players or is not constant sum.
