Apparatus and method for determining the extent of mutuality between partners
First Claim
1. A method for determining whether there is mutuality as between partners by presentation of a series of given questions, said questions invoking a form of multiple choice answer with a player selected choice as to each question and as a group providing an indication of the degree of mutuality, comprising presenting the questions and possible answers for individual consideration by the partners, recording the separate answer of each partner to each said question, privately and in turn, on comparator means to separately determine the mutuality as to each question, and actuating the comparator means to invoke signal means for indicating the extent of mutuality, if any, with respect to the complete series of given questions and thereby indicating whether there is and the degree of mutuality between the partners with respect to the given questions.

Abstract
Method and apparatus are disclosed for determining the extent of mutuality as between partners in respect to a given question involving a form of multiple choice answer. The partners initially consider the question and multiple choice answer selection. The partners then, privately and in turn, record their answer on a comparator instrument. The instrument is then actuated to invoke a signal indicating the extent of mutuality with respect to the question. The apparatus is a calculator-type instrument having memory storage capacity for sequentially receiving the answer from the respective partners. Upon actuation, the instrument compares the answers and invokes the signal indication.
