An Efficient Implementation of Tower of Hanoi using Gray Codes

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 0

Abstract

The Tower of Hanoi Puzzle finds its applications ranging from robotics to psychological research. This puzzle is a classic case of recursive algorithm in programming. However, this puzzle can also be implemented using iterative programming, by using binary codes or gray codes. Various applications require an optimized solution for this puzzle. In this paper, an efficient implementation of Tower of Hanoi using Gray codes for ā€˜nā€™ disks and three rods is presented. This focuses only on minimizing storage and reducing running time as required by many applications. The proposed implementation using Gray code system consumes lesser memory and slightly reduced running time compared to the conventional recursive methodology.
