alok and bhanu play the following min-max game. given the
expression N=40+X+Y-Z,where X,Y,Z are variables representing
single digits (0 to 9),Alok would like to maximize N while
Bhanu would like to minimize it.Towards this end, Alok
chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for
a variable of her choice (X,Y or Z).Alok then chooses the
next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the
value.Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining
variable.Assuming both play to their optimal strategies,the
value of N at the end of the game would be: a)49
b)51
c)31
d)58
