Imagine that you are faced with a board that has 3 pegs, I, II, and III (see the figure above). Peg I has 3 disks of different sizes, with the largest disk, G(reen), at the bottom, the middle one, R(ed), in the middle, and the smallest one, B(lue), on top. You need to transfer all 3 disks to peg III, as shown in the figure below. In doing so, you must follow five rules:
1. You can only move one disk at a time.
2. A disk must be moved from one peg to another.
3. You can only move the top disk of a peg (e.g., in the above figure, you can only move Disk B of Peg I).
4. A disk cannot be placed on a disk smaller than itself (e.g., Disk R can never be on placed on top of Disk B).
5. Number of allowed steps: 7 or less.
