| Oct 2, 2019 at 15:06 | comment | added | Alex Morales | Ok, I can clarify that. Each one of the m players know which number they picked up, but nothing else. I could say that, at the end of the algo, each player only knows its own number and the fact that no one else has the same one. | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 14:27 | comment | added | poncho | The most literal interpretation I can see: "pick $m$ different numbers so that nobody knows (not even the ones doing the picking) which ones were picked" | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 13:52 | comment | added | Alex Morales | Please read my question carefully and then tell me what is the best interpretation of the problem you can make out. From there I could work on a description that avoids any misunderstanding that arises :) | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 13:42 | comment | added | poncho | A better description of the problem would depend on what problem you're trying to solve. What is the problem? Remember: we're not mind-readers; you need to be explicit. | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 13:24 | comment | added | Alex Morales | I'm sorry I couldn't word it better, can you suggest a better description? | |
| Oct 2, 2019 at 13:08 | comment | added | poncho | "it doesn't reveal which one did they pick or which ones were picked by the others." - if no one knows who picked which number, what's the point? Do you mean that everyone learns their own number, but not anyone else's? | |
