This category is an image set. It is named after the author of the images, but is not a user category. Anyone can extend this set with images in the same style.

This category contains step by step images with an angled perspective of the minimal solutions to Tower-of-Hanoi-problems with two (3 steps), three (7 steps) and four disks (15 steps), plus a base file for a potential expansion of this set towards five (31 steps) and six disks (requiring 63 single step files).

The primary aim of this set is to provide illustrations for analysing the problems in a didactical context in order to identify key stages of the solving process and derive an algorithmic approach. In addition the files might also serve as a base for creating animations.

For a black and white reduced side-view of the 4 disk problem see also Category:Hanoi (image set by User:Illuyanka)


For use with the Moodle learning management system, most files contain the unusual acronym "HaToSbS" (Hanoi Towers Step by Step) in their filename in order to be easily retrievable even with the limited keyword search capabilities of Moodle's Commons extension.
