Strategies for the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma

We explore some strategies which tend to perform well in the IPD.We start off by showing the significance of Tit-For-Tat strategies inevolutionary game theory. This is followed by a theoretical derivationof zero-determinant strategies, where we highlight an error on boundsfor scale parameters from the original paper on ZD strategies[6]. Wethen present examples of such strategies and create a custom playerdrawing inspiration from Markov Decision Processes. At the end wepit them all against each other and see how they perform in an IPDtournament.
