Tower of Hanoi
Tower of Hanoi
The Tower of Hanoi (also called the Tower of Brahma or Lucas' Tower) is a mathematical game or puzzle
It consists of three rods, and a number of disks of different sizes which can slide
onto any rod. The puzzle starts with the disks in a neat stack in ascending
order of size on one rod, the smallest at the top, thus making a conical shape.
The
objective of the puzzle is to move the entire stack to another rod, obeying the
following simple rules:
1.
Only one disk may be moved at a time.
2.
Each move consists of taking the upper
disk from one of the stacks and placing it on top of another stack.
3.
No disk may be placed on top of a
smaller disk.
With three
disks, the puzzle can be solved in seven moves. The minimum number of moves
required to solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle is 2n - 1,
where n is the number of disks.
