A Note on the Iterative Algorithm for the Reve's Puzzle
Department of Mathematics, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Dhaka 1000, Bangladesh
An iterative algorithm based on the divide-and-conquer approach has been presented by van de Liefvoort for the Reve's puzzle. This note justifies the method suggested by Liefvoort to determine the number of sizes of the optimal slices, each of which can be moved in some iterative algorithm of the three-peg problem.
