1. (04/07 12:40 pm) the second output file Question: Will it only print the final path to the egg? So if the user back tracks and takes another route, you will have to discern that those moves should not be included? Or are all moves the user makes included, but if the path finding algorithm is used, only the one correct path is printed? Answer: Yes. It prints out only the final path. There are three cases: I: If the hunter finds a path, print out that path, including all the moves that the hunter makes. II: If the hunter asks for help, only print out the path found by your program. III: If the hunter quits, don't print out anything. In case I, you can assume that the hunter makes no more than 800 moves. If the hunter does make more than 800 moves, print out only the first 800 moves. 2. (04/12 12:59 am) multiple path to find the egg If there are multiple paths to find the egg, your program does not need to report exactly the path that the master program finds. input2.txt has multiple paths. 3. (04/20 1:45 pm) deadline extension You will have two more days to work on this project. The new due time will be 11:59 pm Wednesday, April 25. I will also be available (in my office) for project 3 question at: Monday: 9:30 am - 12:00 pm, 3:15 pm - 5:30 pm
Tuesday: 9:30 am - 10:45 am, 4:15 pm and after
4. (04/24 12:45 pm) user input When your program reads the user input, make sure that you have considered that the user actually will type in a direction (W/N/S/E) followed by the RETURN/ENTER key. Your program should ignore this RETURN/ENTER key, it is not an invalid input.
