> Do you mind if we discuss this openly here? Sure, no problem. It's up to individuals what solution they implement, but there's certainly no harm in discussing it.
> I'm assuming you would create 2 2 dimensional arrays. That's one possibilty. If you whack "maze solving algorithms" (without the quotes) into Google you get 4,800 results back. There are simple "random click" solvers, more intelligent one, solvers which use genetic algorithms, walkers, flooders ... the list goes on! It's a case of six developers, half a dozen "best ways to do it". One thing you do have to be careful of though is memory usage - depending on the algorithm you use the memory usage can be silly which will slow things down. I'm going to be having a go myself, but I won't be entering. Something about "not being fair" with me running it and all... ;) Tim. ------------------------------------------------------- Try the ColdFusion Coding Contest!
