Length of
Shortest Solution |
This is the length of the shortest solution to
this problem, minimizing total moves |
Number of
Solutions |
|
This is the number of unique solution sequences,
irregardless of move order and symmetry |
Longest Sweep |
|
|
This is the longest sweep possible in any
minimal length solution [link to solution] |
Longest
Finishing Sweep |
This is the longest sweep in the final move of
any minimal length solution [link] |
Shortest Longest
Sweep |
There is no minimal length solution where all
sweeps are shorter than this number [link] |
Number of Final
Moves |
This is the number of different finishing moves
(up to symmetry) |
#(Longest Sweep |
|
|
Eg. 12(8,UUR) indicates there exist 12 solutions
with different move sequences, |
|
|
, Final Sweep) |
where the longest sweep is 8 and the final move
is the 3 sweep: UUR |
(S) Problem is
symmetric, multiple solutions counted as one |
|
|
|
Note that
solution diagrams are given for Vacate/Finish At in Cartesian Coordinates. |
|
To match locations shown in standard
notation, reflection and/or reflection is generally needed. |
Solution
differences can be very subtle. |
