Towers of Hanoi

Need help converting from recursion to iteration, no clue.  Please advise.  Del


/* iteration example:

#include <cstdio>
#include <ctime>

#define N   29
void hanoi(void) {

     int x, fr, to;
     unsigned int i, j;

     for(x = 1; x < (1 << N); x++) {

          i = (x|x-1) + 1; to = (i+i/3) &3;
          i = x& x-1; fr = (i+i/3) &3;
           
          for(i = x, j = 1; ; i >>= 1, j++) { if(i&1) break; }
          #ifdef AUSGABE
               printf( "move disk %i from %i to %i\n", j, fr, to );
                    fflush(NULL);
          #endif

              return;
     }    

}

int main (void) {

     clock_t t0, t1;
     t0=clock();
     hanoi();  
     t1=clock();
     printf("Time: %f s\n",(t1-t0)/(float)CLOCKS_PER_SEC);

       return 0;
