TSO CBU Charts

For those of you that are familiar with Hermione's Chart, Madison's Chart is basically the same thing, but it uses ABC instead of ABB. I've been using it and it's hard to get out of the habit to start using Hermione's. So I thought I'd put it out there to give you guys a choice. It's the same in number of moves all the way around. On Hermione's chart, it takes 5 guesses to get to CBA; in mine, it takes 5 guesses to get to CAC. That's the only real difference. Happy Coding!!

Madison's CBU Chart

For those of you that like a step-by-step approach, I've optimized Thraxis' Chart down to 102 total guesses (the original Thraxis has 108), using AAB (instead of BBB) when AAA=2. For this method, you don't really need a chart: it's the easiest style to do in your head and still leave you free to chat. This is just an illustration of the method. If you want to solve the codes the fastest possible, use Madison's, Hermione's, or Jandrea's chart.
