We were asked to have x number of discs and move them to a different place in the least number of moves possible. There are two other places you can move them to. This is what it looks like with 4 discs.
You have to move all of the discs to either B or C, they have to be in the same order. While moving the discs you can not put a bigger disc on top of a smaller one.We are to try with different numbers of discs and see if you can find a rule or a patternNumber of discs and its moves1 Disc1. 1-B2 Discs2. 1-B3. 2-C4. 1-C3 Discs1. 1-B2.
