Easier than you think

I first played with a homemade but otherwise identical version of this when I was about 8. I had no problem solving it, and still, 46 years later, when I occasionally see it at a friend's house, can "solve" it in about a minute, or however long it takes to physically move all the pieces. It is NOT a difficult puzzle. It IS fun for children, and for adults who have never seen it, and I am about to purchase two because I want it for one of my young nieces and for my patients with hand injuries to use it to practice grasping and transferring disks of varying sizes. I'm very glad to find it, but I'm highly amused by its difficulty rating!

Tower of Hanoi -- Recursion
Reviewed By:
Donald (EasT Lansing, Michigan)
This seemingly simple puzzle is at the heart of the most fundamental principles in computer science: recursion. How can you design a computer program so that you solve the nth step by first solving the n-1th step? There can hardly be a CS student in the world who was not introduced to T of H in a first or second course.
