Ok I didnt work it out, but that IS the formula for largest integer still :p
 
I havent got a clue all these big numbers are.....I like lateral thinking, not maths! :)

The answer to mine was that the barberwith the crap shop and messy hair HAD to have had his hair cut at the other barbers - they 2 barbers cut each others hair

so basically the bloke returned back to the crappy shop to get a good hair cut...

ok, I found this one in my psychology textbook.

it's called the Hanoi tower problem. you've got three vertical rods next to each other. the one on the left has 3 disks of different sizes stacked on top of each other, largest on bottom, smallest on top. the object is to get the 3 disks over to the right most vertical rod in 7 moves. you can only move one disk at a time and no larger disk can be placed on top of a smaller one.

...ok, i just looked this up on google. i found an interesting site that has an applet that will let you do it manually. I figured this one out just by looking at the picture in my book, so I didn't have the luxury of being able to physically move them about :p. but yeah, with this site you can set the number of disks anywhere between 2 and 12.

see if you can do it without watching the program do it for you first :p
