- Roman died the first day of the 35th year after Christ. Means Roman lived up to last day of the 34th year.

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N=40+X+Y-Z, where X, Y and Z
are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to
minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable
of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value.
Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable: Assuming both play to their optimal strategies,
the value ofN at the end of the game would be
