+# nimsticks: LaTeX package for drawing Nim sticks and games
+
+nimsticks is a package for LaTeX that should also work with LuaTeX and XeTeX, that draws sticks for representating games of multi-pile Nim.
+
+By [Peter Rowlett](https://github.com/prowlett/).
+
+## Background
+
+Nim objects could be anything, of course, but conventionally sticks or stones are used. There are various types of dot in LaTeX that might look like stones, but somehow a line of dots didn't seem satisfactory. There are various ways to draw a line (e.g. just typing IIIII), including some tally markers (e.g. in hhcount). My problem with these (call me picky) is that they are all identical lines, and a `heap' of them just looks very organised. Really, I want a set of lines that looks like someone just threw them into heaps (though probably without crossings for the avoidance of ambiguity).
+
+The way this works is it draws a thick vertical line in TikZ with a little wobble added so each one doesn't look extremely well-lined-up with its neighbour, achieved by adding or subtracting a small random number to the top and bottom coordinate.
+
+It does this by providing two commands:
+
+- `\drawnimstick`: draws a single Nim stick with a little random wobble;
+- `\nimgame`: takes a comma-separated list of numbers and draws a line of Nim heaps holding those number of sticks.

+%\section{Background}
+%
+%\lstinline{nimsticks} is a package for \LaTeX{} that draws sticks for representating games of multi-pile Nim.
+%
+%Nim objects could be anything, of course, but conventionally sticks or stones are used. There are various types of dot in LaTeX that might look like stones, but somehow a line of dots didn't seem satisfactory. There are various ways to draw a line (e.g. just typing IIIII), including some tally markers (e.g. in hhcount). My problem with these (call me picky) is that they are all identical lines, and a `heap' of them just looks very organised. Really, I want a set of lines that looks like someone just threw them into heaps (though probably without crossings for the avoidance of ambiguity).
+%
+%The way this works is it draws a thick vertical line in TikZ with a little wobble added so each one doesn't look extremely well-lined-up with its neighbour, achieved by adding or subtracting a small random number to the top and bottom coordinate.
+%
+%It does this by providing two commands:
+%\begin{itemize}
+%\item \lstinline{\drawnimstick}: draws a single Nim stick with a little random wobble;
+%\item \lstinline{\nimgame}: takes a comma-separated list of numbers and draws a line of Nim heaps holding those number of sticks.
+%\end{itemize}
+%
+%\section{Usage}
+%
+%For example, the input \lstinline!\nimgame{3,5,4}! will produce output like this (precise look affected by random wobble in the sticks):
+%
+%\nimgame{5,3,4}
+%
+%This is designed to look like a 3-pile Nim game with 5 sticks in the first pile (or heap), 3 in the second and 4 in the third.
+%
+%It is likely the user will want to use \lstinline{\nimgame} and not \lstinline{\drawnimstick} directly, but the input \lstinline{\drawnimstick} will produce output like this (precise look affected by random wobble in the sticks): \drawnimstick
+%
+%\lstinline{\nimgame} will happily work with one heap, so the input \lstinline!\nimgame{7}! will produce output like this (precise look affected by random wobble in the sticks):
+%
+%\nimgame{7}
+%
+%\section{Issues}
+%
+%There is no limit in the code to the number of piles or the number in a pile, but this code doesn't do anything to cope when line breaks start happening, and presumably there is a computational limit.
+%
+%In principle, if you add lots of piles it will just wrap onto multiple lines, though it will start to look less clear. For example, the input\\
+%\lstinline!\nimgame{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1}!\\
+%will produce the output:
+%\nimgame{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1}
+%Similarly, if you have a lot of sticks in the same heap, it will wrap and look confusing, for example the input \lstinline!\nimgame{128}! will produce the output:
+%\nimgame{256}
