Solving Triangular Peg Solitaire
George Bell wrote a special version of Triangular Peg Solitaire for the website back in 2005.
He has now published a paper here: Solving Triangular Peg Solitaire.

Where is this paper? It seems like a good puzzle.

Re: Solving Triangular Peg Solitaire
If you click the link MathsIsFun has given for the paper, you get to the page and up in the top right corner it says
"Download:
* PostScript
* PDF
* Other formats"
Choose one of those. Your computer probably has Adobe so I'd choose PDF.
