Pirate game

Sometimes you find a puzzle really messy, and you just put it aside. Next time when you pick it up, however, it magically becomes all clear.
Computing people all heard of the pirate game, and the following is some kind of the solution.
1, (100) 1s
2, (0 ,100) 1a,2s
3, (1 ,0 ,99 ) 1s,2a,3s
4, (0 ,1 ,0 , 99) 1a,2s,3a,4s
5, (1 ,0 ,1 , 0, 98) 1s,2a,3s,4a,5s
………………………………
So for Nth, his solution would be:
- (N)p := 100 – (n-1)/2 // himself
- (N-1)p := 0 // next to him
-
For i from 0 to N-2
i := 1 – (i+1)
- End
