10 0 0 <-- starting point

3 7 0 <-- fill up the 7-L jar

3 4 3 <-- fill up the 3-L jar from the 7-L jar

6 4 0 <-- pour the content in the 3-L jar into the 10-L jar

6 1 3 <-- fill up the 3-L jar from the 7-L jar

9 1 0 <-- pour the content in the 3-L jar into the 10-L jar 9 0 1 <-- pour the content in the 7-L jar into the 3-L jar 2 7 1 <-- fill up the 7-L jar
