The original Panex puzzle is from the Japanese Magic Company
|
|
from the 1980's. Mathematicians at Bell Laboratories estimated
|
|
the number of moves to swap 2 columns of order 10 to be
|
|
27,564 <= N <= 31,537. It came in two varieties: one with a
|
|
blue and a yellow pyramid of order 10 on silver tiles; in the
|
|
gold version pieces of each color look alike i.e. no pyramid
|
|
is drawn on them), this is a little harder.
|
|
The original Tower of Hanoi puzzle is the invention of
|
|
Edouard Lucas and was sold as a toy in France in 1883. The
|
|
legend of 64 disks in the great temple of Benares of the god
|
|
Brahma is also his invention.
