Write code to find your way through a maze, while only getting feedback through a 13x13 line of sight array
that is returned after each move

Basicly you start by:

• running: GraphicalLauncher.java
• implement: ChallengeImpl.java (current code will only run to see something moving on the screen)
• repeat until done

I will compare the code with others by:

• cpu benchmark
• minimum moves average
• maybe memory

• clone and import into IntelliJ idea (others not tested)
• GraphicalLauncher: starts the code with a view (the view won't be there when I bench it)
  • try this first just to get a feel what it does
• HeadlessLauncher: is there for you to test faster, and is more similar to the way I run it
  • try this seconds and see it's the same as first, but headless
• Test both to get a feel of what it does
• open mc.renamebeforepr package
  • open the ChallengeImpl within that package
  • public void handleLineOfSightUpdate(CellType[][] los) {
    • is called after every move supplying you with the current 360 degree line of sight with you in the middle
    • create you own datastructure and process the (CellType[][] los) that is given
  • public Direction getMove()
    • is called before every move
    • needs you to choose/return a Direction enum (NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST)
• The ChallengeImpl should be the only file you need to change
  • You can add other files within the same package

You will be presented a maze, every iteration a 'Direction' (enum) will be asked from you as response.
You must choose your new direction by storing and computing input from : maze.getLineOfSight.
That input will be : a 13x13 grid with 'your' position in the middle. The values are enums(CellType)

Now you must find your way from Start to finish tile !

Rename your folder to something with your (fake)name preferably Best would be if you could leave a Pull Request to github If you are really not able you could send me your renamed package with the file implementing Challenge

• The mazes are random and not tested that thoroughly. If you get an exception (rare) just restart
• Customize the runners in the : Configuration file you can specify:
  • pixel size: so that you can see more or better
  • Screensize
  • FPS to control the speed of the simulation (Frames Per Second)
  • some more
  • Choose what example mazes are run so that you can try and test/debug better.

I hope you will enjoy this challenge ! For questions you can ask 'deboder'
