No... I meant that, with most maze-solving algorithms, it is assumed
that the program has NO KNOWLEDGE of the end point or possible routes of
the maze beforehand (it can guess that it isn't right in front but
HEY!).

This maze puzzle assumes full knowledge of the maze beforehand (think in
terms of computer knowledge ie a map).

So, you are given:

1) a MAP
2) a START point
3) an END point

Most maze algorithms work on the basis of [2] and sometimes [3] but not
all those three at once as a general rule.
