There is a mass killing arrangement in a circular conference table. there are 'n' seats and the seats are numbered. person in 1st chair got a knife. if a dispute occurs during the conference, he will kill the person having seat no 2 and pass the knife to seat no 3. 3 will kill 4th and pass it to 5 and so on. clearly, only 1 person will be left after the mass killing process.
The above example can be illustrated as -
1,2,3,4,5
Round 1:
1 Kills 2
3 kills 4
5 left so next round begins from 5
Round 2:
Left1,3,5
5 kills 1
3 left so next round begins from 3
Round 3:
Left 3,5
Finally 3 is the Gladiator!!!
