   Towers of Hanoi
  
      A classic computer science problem, invented by
      Edouard Lucas in 1883, often used as an example of
      {recursion}.
  
      "In the great temple at Benares, says he, beneath the dome
      which marks the centre of the world, rests a brass plate in
      which are fixed three diamond needles, each a cubit high and
      as thick as the body of a bee.   On one of these needles, at
      the creation, God placed sixty-four discs of pure gold, the
      largest disc resting on the brass plate, and the others
      getting smaller and smaller up to the top one.   This is the
      Tower of Bramah.   Day and night unceasingly the priests
      transfer the discs from one diamond needle to another
      according to the fixed and immutable laws of Bramah, which
      require that the priest on duty must not move more than one
      disc at a time and that he must place this disc on a needle so
      that there is no smaller disc below it.   When the sixty-four
      discs shall have been thus transferred from the needle on
      which at the creation God placed them to one of the other
      needles, tower, temple, and Brahmins alike will crumble into
      dust, and with a thunderclap the world will vanish."
  
      The recursive solution is: Solve for n-1 discs recursively,
      then move the remaining largest disc to the free needle.
  
      Note that there is also a non-recursive solution: On
      odd-numbered moves, move the smallest sized disk clockwise.
      On even-numbered moves, make the single other move which is
      possible.
