Dear Ankur Da,

It is a very nice article and wonderfully set up with nice examples.

I would like to raise two small issues:

1. The prize is not the Nobel prize, but the Nobel Memorial prize.

2. John Nash was not the founder of game theory; the founders were John von
Newmann and Oskar Morgenstern. I am not sure if you meant Nash was the
founder or not, in the last sentence of the article.

Finally, you are doing a great service by writing such articles in Assam
Tribune.

With regards,
Manjil
