COMMENTS
| The reason the sequence is palindromic is because playing the game backward is the same as playing it forward, with the notions of "hole" and "peg" interchanged.

FORMULA
| Satisfies a(n)=a(31-n) for 0<=n<=31 (sequence is a palindrome).
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
| There are four possible first jumps, but they all lead to the same board position (rotationally equivalent), thus a(1)=1.
