13 ;; Solves the Towers of Hanoi puzzle while-U-wait.
|
|
14 ;;
|
|
15 ;; The puzzle: Start with N rings, decreasing in sizes from bottom to
|
|
16 ;; top, stacked around a post. There are two other posts. Your mission,
|
|
17 ;; should you choose to accept it, is to shift the pile, stacked in its
|
|
18 ;; original order, to another post.
|
|
19 ;;
|
|
20 ;; The challenge is to do it in the fewest possible moves. Each move
|
|
21 ;; shifts one ring to a different post. But there's a rule; you can
|
|
22 ;; only stack a ring on top of a larger one.
|
|
23 ;;
|
|
24 ;; The simplest nontrivial version of this puzzle is N = 3. Solution
|
|
25 ;; time rises as 2**N, and programs to solve it have long been considered
|
|
26 ;; classic introductory exercises in the use of recursion.
|
|
27 ;;
|
|
28 ;; The puzzle is called `Towers of Hanoi' because an early popular
|
|
29 ;; presentation wove a fanciful legend around it. According to this
|
|
30 ;; myth (uttered long before the Vietnam War), there is a Buddhist
|
|
31 ;; monastery at Hanoi which contains a large room with three time-worn
|
|
32 ;; posts in it surrounded by 21 golden discs. Monks, acting out the
|
|
33 ;; command of an ancient prophecy, have been moving these disks, in
|
|
34 ;; accordance with the rules of the puzzle, once every day since the
|
|
35 ;; monastery was founded over a thousand years ago. They are said
|
|
36 ;; believe that when the last move of the puzzle is completed, the
|
|
37 ;; world will end in a clap of thunder. Fortunately, they are nowhere
|
|
38 ;; even close to being done...
