I need some help with functions.

[Silent Avenger]

Okay I'm making a program that will solve the tower of hanoi game. I think I've got the proper function to solve it but I'm not quite sure how to output information on how to solve the game eg. move disk 1 to peg 2, move disk 2 to peg 3, move disk 1 to peg 3, etc.

if no one knows what I'm talking about here's a website with the game: http://www.cut-the-knot.org/recurrence/hanoi.shtml

Help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Care to show us the code you have, thus far?

[Silent Avenger]

Oh right, sorry I forgot to post it. Okay here's the code I have so far:

code:

Private Function MoveTower(Disk As Integer, Source As Integer, Dest As Integer, Spare As Integer)     If Disk = 0 Then       MoveDisks Disk, Source, Dest     Else       MoveTower Disk - 1, Source, Spare, Dest       MoveDisks Disk, Source, Dest       MoveTower Disk - 1, Spare, Dest, Source     End If End Function Private Sub Command1_Click() MoveTower text1.Text End Sub

[wtd]

Cannot MoveDisks and/or MoveTower affect the value of some text field?

[Silent Avenger]

The value of the text field should not be affected though because it's the number of disks in the game.

haha i've been doing java all day and got mixed up with forums. sorry i gave you a link to your solution in java code. If you need any help translating the code just ask.

P.S. i had to write the pseudo code for Hanoi for one of my assignments just recently.

It's okay cool dude, I managed to figure it out with the help of the website.
