Hamlet changes the letter going to the King of England to kill him when he gets there to say to kill the people who give you this letter,which were Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. So they were killed instead.
In Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, Ros and Guil have a difficult time remembering their own names. They know they are one of Rosencrantz or Guildenstern, but are not sure which. Viewers of Shakespeare's Hamlet often have a similar problem, as does King Claudius, although the characters themselves seem to be clear on the issue in the Shakespeare play.
Claudius plans to send Hamlet to England with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern bearing a secret death warrant.
