  | Length of
  Shortest Solution | This is the length of the shortest solution to
  this problem, minimizing total moves | 
 
  | Number of
  Solutions |  | This is the number of unique solution
  sequences, irregardless of move order and symmetry | 
 
  | Longest Sweep |  |  | This is the longest sweep possible in any
  minimal length solution [link to solution] | 
 
  | Longest
  Finishing Sweep | This is the longest sweep in the final move of
  any minimal length solution [link] | 
 
  | Shortest
  Longest Sweep | There is no minimal length solution where all
  sweeps are shorter than this number [link] | 
 
  | Number of Final
  Moves | This is the number of different finishing moves
  (up to symmetry) | 
 
  | #(Longest, Second Longest, | Eg. 12(8,7,2) indicates there are 12 solutions
  with different move sequences, where | 
 
  |  |  |  |  |  | , Final) | the longest sweep is 8, the second longest
  sweep is 7, and the final sweep is 2 | 
 
  | (S) Problem is
  symmetric, multiple solutions counted as one |  |  |  | 
 
  | Solution
  differences can be very subtle. |  |  |  |  |  |
