This Web page is about a game called STICKS, which our computer teacher, Mr.Bergen taught us. The rules of the game are as follows:

1. To set up the game, you need 15 small objects, ex: rocks, toothpicks, buttons etc.
2. Set them up so that in the first row there are 3 sticks, in the second row there are 5 sticks, and in the third row there are 7 sticks.
3. During your turn, you may take any number of sticks from any one row.
4. The object of the game is to leave your opponent with the last stick.
