The Towers of Hanoi are a mathematical puzzle and patience game. The game is made up of several different-sized punched slices put up on three rods A, B and C. At the beginning all slices are on rod A, sorted according to their size, with the biggest slice on the bottom and the smallest one on top. The object of the game is to move the slices in this order from rod A to C. With every move the upmost slice may be put onto on of the other rods, but only if there is not already a smaller slice.
