SetOutcome

Name

SetOutcome -- Sets the outcome at a node or contingency

Synopsis

SetOutcome[node->NODE, outcome->EFOUTCOME*] =: EFOUTCOME 
SetOutcome[profile->LIST(STRATEGY), outcome->NFOUTCOME] =: NFOUTCOME 

Description

The first version of SetOutcome attaches outcome to node. Returns the outcome attached. Note that nonterminal nodes may have outcomes attached; the interpretation is that nonterminal outcomes represent incremental payoffs. It is an error if node and outcome are not from the same extensive form game.

The second version of SetOutcome attaches outcome to the cell in the normal form game determined by the pure strategy profile defined by profile. Returns the outcome attached. It is an error if profile and outcome are not from the same normal form game. Also, profile must be a list of strategies consisting of one strategy for each player in the game.
