1# $NetBSD: hanoi-include.mk,v 1.3 2022/05/08 07:27:50 rillig Exp $
2#
3# Implements the Towers of Hanoi puzzle, demonstrating a bunch of more or less
4# useful programming techniques:
5#
6#	* default assignment using the ?= assignment operator
7#	* including the same file recursively (rather unusual)
8#	* extracting the current value of a variable using the .for loop
9#	* using shell commands for calculations since make is a text processor
10#	* using the :: dependency operator for adding commands to a target
11#	* on-the-fly variable assignment expressions using the ::= modifier
12#
13# usage:
14#	env N=3 make -r -f hanoi-include.mk
15#
16# endless loop, since command line variables cannot be overridden:
17#	make -r -f hanoi-include.mk N=3
