Constructor Summary

CompoundGame()
Construct a new Compound game.

Method Summary

protected void	generatePolymatrixGame(double R, double S, double T, double P) Sets up the compound game as a graphical game (polymatrix, really) with each submatrix being in the form R, R S, T T, S P, P for whatever values of R, S, T, and P are passed in.
protected void	initGraph() Initializes a complete graph with the number of nodes equal to the number of players in the game.
void	initialize() Sets the number of players from the command line parameter, sets the number of actions to 2 for each player, and initializes the graph.

Constructor Detail

CompoundGame

public CompoundGame()
             throws java.lang.Exception

Construct a new Compound game.

Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws java.lang.Exception

Sets the number of players from the command line parameter, sets the number of actions to 2 for each player, and initializes the graph. All child classes should call this function for initialization.

Overrides:

initialize in class Game

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if, for example, there is a problem initializing the graph

initGraph

protected void initGraph()

Initializes a complete graph with the number of nodes equal to the number of players in the game.

Specified by:

initGraph in class GraphicalGame

generatePolymatrixGame

protected void generatePolymatrixGame(double R,
                                      double S,
                                      double T,
                                      double P)

Sets up the compound game as a graphical game (polymatrix, really) with each submatrix being in the form R, R S, T T, S P, P for whatever values of R, S, T, and P are passed in.

Parameters:

R -

S -
