A game is a mathematical model of a situation of conflict of interests in which the optimal strategy for one player not only depends on his own decisions but also on the decisions of his opponents. The course is an introduction to game theory with emphasis on applications in evolutionary and behavioural biology.The [excerpt] macro is a standalone macro and it cannot be used inline. Click on this message for details.
This macro generates standalone content. As a consequence you need to make sure to use a syntax that separates your macro from the content before and after it so that it's on a line by itself. For example in XWiki Syntax 2.0+ this means having 2 newline characters (a.k.a line breaks) separating your macro from the content before and after it.
