DESCRIPTION

       Puzzle with no arguments plays a 4x4 15-puzzle.  The  con­
       trol  bar  has  two boxes in it.  Clicking in the left box
       scrambles the puzzle.  Clicking in the  right  box  solves
       the  puzzle.   Clicking the middle button anywhere else in
       the control bar causes puzzle to exit.   Clicking  in  the
       tiled  region moves the empty spot to that location if the
       region you click in is in the same row or  column  as  the
       empty slot.
