=head1 NAME

examples/pir/hanoi.pir - Towers of hanoi

=head1 SYNOPSIS

You may pass in the height of the tower:

    % ./parrot examples/pir/hanoi.pir 5

The default is 3.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Towers of Hanoi (http://www.cut-the-knot.org/recurrence/hanoi.shtml) is
a combinatorial puzzle. The PIR shows manipulation of arrays of
integers.

=head1 Data Structure

C<towers> is a C<FixedPMCArray> PMC with three elements.  Each element is a
C<ResizableIntegerArray> PMC which represents a tower (column) of Hanoi.
Each integer element of the array represents a single disk, where the
integer value is the size of the disk.  The top of the tower is at the
highest index; since a larger disk cannot be placed on top of a smaller
one, it follows that the tower array must always be sorted in descending
order.  This lends itself naturally to use of the C<push> and C<pop>
operations for moving disks.

So this situation (after the first move)

           |        |
     ====  |        |
    ====== |        |   ==

is represented as

    [[3, 2], [], [1]]

In pseudocode:

    sub main() {
        size = argv[0] || 3
        int towers[] = [[size..1], [], []]
        move_stack(size, 0, 2, 1)

        sub move_stack(n_to_move, start, target, storage) {
            if (n_to_move == 1) {
                move_one(start, target)
            }
            else {
                # Move all but the largest disk to storage.
                move_stack(n_to_move-1, start, storage, target)
                # Move the largest disk to the target.
                move_one(start, target)
                # Move all but the largest disk from storage to target.
                move_stack(n_to_move-1, storage, target, start)
            }
        }

        sub move_one(start_col, dest_col) {
            # Do the move
            push(towers[dest_col], pop(towers[start_col]));

            # Print the results
            print(towers);
        }
    }

=head1 TODO

Replace $I6 etc. with mnemonic register names.
