Oh god Hanoi's towers... Incredible that I programmed it in BASIC on my ZX81 in the 80s, and now at 50+yo I would have no clue how to program it lol
Any other recursive algorithm was no problem for me, but I couldn't wrap my head around this game.
And then someone starts talking about dining philosophers...
I don't get this meme. Can anyone explain what this meme means?
This is called Tower of Hanoi problem, usually introduced as main task when learning about recursion in programming
The meme basically shows how a non-programmer sees the Towers of Hanoi game as a fun little puzzle, while a programmer sees it as a traumatizing experience due to the recursive nature of the algorithm behind it
Hey I'm Vietnamese, nothing to scared of tower of Hanoi ok? Come vitsit us, it would be nice experience for u I'm sure
M-x hanoi
Good ol' emacs, relevant xkcd (although I don't think there's anyone that hasn't seen it).
Sure, but can you shut it off?
