16 ;;; Commentary:
18 ;; Solves the Towers of Hanoi puzzle while-U-wait.
20 ;; The puzzle: Start with N rings, decreasing in sizes from bottom to
21 ;; top, stacked around a post. There are two other posts. Your mission,
22 ;; should you choose to accept it, is to shift the pile, stacked in its
23 ;; original order, to another post.
25 ;; The challenge is to do it in the fewest possible moves. Each move
26 ;; shifts one ring to a different post. But there's a rule; you can
27 ;; only stack a ring on top of a larger one.
29 ;; The simplest nontrivial version of this puzzle is N = 3. Solution
30 ;; time rises as 2**N, and programs to solve it have long been considered
31 ;; classic introductory exercises in the use of recursion.
33 ;; The puzzle is called `Towers of Hanoi' because an early popular
34 ;; presentation wove a fanciful legend around it. According to this
35 ;; myth (uttered long before the Vietnam War), there is a Buddhist
36 ;; monastery at Hanoi which contains a large room with three time-worn
37 ;; posts in it surrounded by 21 golden discs. Monks, acting out the
38 ;; command of an ancient prophecy, have been moving these disks, in
39 ;; accordance with the rules of the puzzle, once every day since the
40 ;; monastery was founded over a thousand years ago. They are said to
41 ;; believe that when the last move of the puzzle is completed, the
42 ;; world will end in a clap of thunder. Fortunately, they are nowhere
43 ;; even close to being done...
45 ;; 1999 addition: The `Towers of Unix' command (hanoi-unix) stems from
46 ;; the never-disproven legend of a Eunuch monastery at Princeton that
47 ;; contains a large air-conditioned room with three time-worn posts in
48 ;; it surrounded by 32 silicon discs. Nimble monks, acting out the
49 ;; command of an ancient prophecy, have been moving these disks, in
50 ;; accordance with the rules of the puzzle, once every second since
51 ;; the monastery was founded almost a billion seconds ago. They are
52 ;; said to believe that when the last move of the puzzle is completed,
53 ;; the world will reboot in a clap of thunder. Actually, because the
54 ;; bottom disc is blocked by the "Do not feed the monks" sign, it is
55 ;; believed the End will come at the time that disc is to be moved...
