Abstract
Given piles of tokens and a positive integer , the game Nim of exact slow -Nim is played as follows. Two players move alternately. In each move, a player chooses exactly non-empty piles and removes one token from each of them. A player whose turn it is to move but has no move loses (if the normal version of the game is played, and wins if it is the mis\'{e}re version). In Integers 20 (2020) 1-19, Gurvich et al gave an explicit formula for the Sprague-Grundy function of Nim, for both its normal and mis\'{e}re version. Here we extend this result and obtain an explicit formula for the P-positions of the normal version of Nim and Nim.
