Minimal erase counter
How to make a counter that has a minimal number of erases (0->1
transitions).
i.e.
1111 erase
1110
1100
1000
1101 erase
1001
0001
...
It boils down to finding a sequence of paths through the bit-flip
hypercube from 111... to 000...
This is probably not unique, but how to find a representative with a
simple structure? I.e. how to turn the directed (1->0) hypercube
graph into a tree? (And step 2, how to order the branches of that
tree?)
The idea is to give each node only a single parent. I.e. given a bit
vector, there is an algorithm to compute its parent.
10010011 ->
11010011
101001 ->
111001
