1932: Henry Ernest Dudeney: Puzzles and Curious Problems:
- Moving Counter Problems
- $254$ -- The Flanders Wheel
Mistake
- Move the counters in the following order: $\text {A N D A F L N D A F D N L D R S D L N A F R S E R S L N A L L}$ -- $30$ moves in all.
There is an extra $\text L$ at the end.
The list of moves should read:
- $\text {A N D A F L N D A F D N L D R S D L N A F R S E R S L N A L}$
This mistake has been corrected in Martin Gardner's republication of this as puzzle $379$ in 536 Puzzles & Curious Problems.
