To see this, note that if $b+c<a$, then the XOR of the binary representations of $b$ and $c$ will be strictly smaller than that of $a$. For the misere as well: you follow the same strategy as in the regular case until your opponent presents you a single row. Now you take all but one item from that row. | |
