About the Game

In the two-player game Glaisher, players separate and move their stacks in order to connect the opposite sides of the board. The mechanisms for separation and movement of stacks are dictated by integer partitions with distinct parts, i.e., splitting numbers into sets of different smaller numbers. Players might recognize this mechanism from Kakuro puzzles. The game is therefore named after mathematician James Glaisher, who devised a theorem about integer partitions.
