One of the squares is empty. This allows you to move the other squares around into different positions. The first image to the left might be thought of as a \"solved\" 3 x 3 8 puzzle. The second image might be thought of as an \"unsolved\" 8 puzzle.\n\nThe terms \"solved\" and \"unsolved\" are completely arbitrary here. What is important is that a puzzle in a given \"state\" must be transformed into another state through a series of \"moves.\" Given that there is only one space on the puzzle board, only one square can be moved at a time. Any such a move yeilds a new \"state.\" It should be noted that (perhaps obviously), puzzles need not be limited to 3 x 3 in size.","open_issues":0,"has_wiki":true,"watchers":0,"fork":false,"size":0,"stargazers":0,"private":false,"has_issues":true},"actor_attributes":{"type":"User","email":"da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709"},"url":"https://github.com/vipwoody/8-Puzzle"}
