On a serious note, did you know that we don't know what the most efficient solution for the Towers of Hanoi is in the case where you have 4 or more pegs? [link\|http://mathworld.wolfram.com/TowersofHanoi.html\|http://mathworld.wol...owersofHanoi.html] Though there is a suspiciously precise conjecture. So we might know it, but don't know that it is the best possible.

Post #155,229 by admin 5/14/04 8:26:01 PM Reply	Er, no, it didn't... We didn't "train" Duncan. We most specifically did NOT "train" Duncan. Sorry, pet peeve. Lots of people assume that smart kids are made that way by their parents shoving stuff down their throats (like flash cards or what not) when they're very young.

Post #155,231 by ben_tilly 5/14/04 8:35:47 PM Reply	I was joking - sorry for not making that clear Duncan is not a trained seal, and I didn't intend to make it seem like I thought that he was.
