| Abstract | Games are promoted as examples for classroom discussion of stationary Markov chains. In a game context Markov chain terminology and results are made concrete, interesting, and entertaining. Game length for several-player games such as "Hi Ho! Cherry-O" and "Chutes and Ladders" is investigated and new, simple formulas are given. Slight modifications to "Monopoly" rules are discussed to fit it into a Markov chain model with the ultimate goal of determining the long-run frequencies for visiting the various game properties. (Contains 2 tables.) (As Provided). |
