Josephus’ Problem

🎯 Clear up murders in the monastery.

Sean Connery hunts the monk-killer

In a monastery there are 1 assassin and the following 9 monks:

monks = [
       "Adalbertus", "Bonifacius", "Commodus",
       "Dominicus", "Emarius", "Franziskus",
       "Gustavus", "Henrik", "Iohannes"
       ]

Every night the 5th monk is murdered (counting from the 1st monk or the last victim). The last monk catches the assassin.

Which monk will survive?
