Abstract

We investigate the game known as Chomp. This is an example of a combinatorial two-person nim-type game. Like most of games it has very simple rules, but this does not mean that there is a simple strategy to win. With the help of a computer program we present winning strategies for the first player, since P1 always wins. We also show an isomorphism between Chomp and the Divisor Game.
