alok and bhanu play the following min-max game. given the
expression N=40+X+Y-Z,where X,Y,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

value.Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining
