Try and work through a few examples...
Maybe there are some ranges in which only one person wins
Go by powers of 9
Actually the naive recursive "dp" works really fast even on the largest value of n. This is because there are less than $$$\log_2(n) \cdot \log_3(n) \cdot \dots \cdot \log_9(n) = 2164612996$$$ states. There are actually much less than this because the numbers 2-9 share many prime factors so this estimate overcounted many states. I got AC with it. Just try to answer the question: If the current number is p and it is my turn, do I win?
If p >= n i lost. Else if 9*p >= n then i win.
Am i correct?
Maybe I should say try to write a formula for the function win(p) := does the current player win if the current number is p. The base case would be win(p) = false if p >= n. The answer would be win(1) ? P1 : P2.
