How to intercept someone moving in a 2-dimensional grid world? Thanks, I was kinda hoping for an easier method though. Oh well. By the way, I updated the question to include some details of $d$'s motion to help motivate the question and help you make sense of what I'm trying to achieve. |

How to intercept someone moving in a 2-dimensional grid world? @newbie Yes, every person can pick at most one direction and move at most one square in that direction. |

To operate or not to operate? About the functions being monotonically increasing: I meant that each day you have an independent chance of dying. The same way that you can throw a die 100 times and still have a 1/6 chance that you get a six each time. About expectation values: The question is about finding the best day to have the operation, in order to maximise the expected lifespan. In my proposed solution, I didn't think it necessary to go through expected values calculations to achieve that. Why should it be necessary anyway? |
