shown) three vertical sticks (size of a pencil)
stuck to a horizontal board. You should also
have discs of varying sizes with holes (like a
doughnut). Start with one disc; place it on (in)
stick A. Transfer it to another stick (B or C); this
is one move (m). Now try with two discs placed
in A such that the large disc is below, and the
smaller disc is above (number of discs = n=2

now). Now transfer them one at a time in B or C
