# $NetBSD: hanoi-include.mk,v 1.4 2023/01/19 22:48:42 rillig Exp $
#
# Implements the Towers of Hanoi puzzle, demonstrating a bunch of more or less
# useful programming techniques:
#
# * default assignment using the ?= assignment operator
# * including the same file recursively (rather unusual)
# * extracting the current value of a variable using the .for loop
# * using shell commands for calculations since make is a text processor
# * using the :: dependency operator for adding commands to a target
# * on-the-fly variable assignment expressions using the ::= modifier
#
# usage:
# env N=3 make -r -f hanoi-include.mk
#
# endless loop, since command line variables cannot be overridden:
# make -r -f hanoi-include.mk N=3
N?= 5 # Move this number of disks ...
FROM?= A # ... from this stack ...
VIA?= B # ... via this stack ...
TO?= C # ... to this stack.
# Since make has no built-in arithmetic functions, convert N to a list of
# words and use the built-in word counting instead.

N:= count ${:U:${:Urange=$N}} # 'count' + one word for every disk
