# Prisoner

Play the game of Prisoner where you work sometimes with and sometimes against your partner (the computer). Go along or trick your partner to get enough money to buy your way out of jail. Different computer strategies are described with the program steps necessary to implement them. Some are effectively unbeatable in only 1k of memory.
