【DataStructure】 Classical Question: Josephus Cycle

标签：collection   java   datastructure   

【Description】

  This problem is based upon a report by the historian Joseph ben Matthias (Josephus) on the outcome of a suicide pact that he had made between himself and 40 soldiers as they were besieged by superior Roman forces in 67 A.D. Josephus proposed that each man slay his neighbor. This scheme necessarily leaves one to kill himself. Josephus cleverly contrived to be that one, thus surviving to tell the tale.
