Why are the numbers so non-round in the "submodular but not GS" example?

[edit]

I believe one could have the table-of-values be:

v(x) = v(y) = 10; v(z) = 15;
v(xy) = 20; v(xz) = v(yz) = 19;
v(xyz) = 20

With initial price vector:

p(x) = p(y) = p(z) = 5.

And p'(x) = 100.

In my opinion this would make it significantly easier to see why the example works. ClathomasPrime (talk) 19:51, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
