Ostomachion, also known as the "Savant's Puzzle" or "Archimedes' Puzzle," is an ancient Greek dissection puzzle attributed to Archimedes. It consists of a square divided into 14 different geometric pieces, which can be rearranged to form various shapes, including a square and potentially many other configurations. The challenge of the Ostomachion is to determine the number of distinct ways to rearrange the pieces to recreate the original square, as well as other shapes.
