: It emphasizes the intuition behind mathematical assumptions rather than just the proofs. Behavioral Integration

Imagine two firms, A and B, competing in a market for a homogeneous good. Each firm must decide how much to produce, taking into account the other firm's production level. Using game theory, we can analyze the strategic interactions between the firms and predict the equilibrium outcome. Using game theory, we can analyze the strategic
