Penney's Game

---

Overview

Penney's game, named after its inventor Walter Penney, is a binary (head/tail) sequence generating game between two or more players. Player A selects a sequence of heads and tails (of length 3 or larger), and shows this sequence to player B. Player B then selects another sequence of heads and tails of the same length. Subsequently, a fair coin is tossed until either player A's or player B's sequence appears as a consecutive subsequence of the coin toss outcomes. The player whose sequence appears first wins [Wikipedia].

Here we have a friendly clone of this game that I wrote during coronavirus quarantine days.
