How can I implement maze solving algorithms in code?

You can implement maze solving algorithms like Depth-First Search or A* in various programming languages. Which language are you using?

I'm using Python. Can you provide a sample code for Depth-First Search?

Sure! Here's a simple implementation of Depth-First Search for a maze in Python:

def dfs(maze, start, end):
    stack = [start]
    visited = set()
    while stack:
        position = stack.pop()
        if position == end:
            return True
        if position not in visited:
            visited.add(position)
            for neighbor in get_neighbors(position, maze):
                stack.append(neighbor)
    return False

What are the key functions I need to define for this code to work?

You'll need to define a get_neighbors function that returns valid neighboring positions in the maze. Also, ensure your maze is represented as a 2D list.

Thanks! How can I visualize the maze and the path found?

You can use libraries like Matplotlib to visualize the maze. You can plot the maze grid and highlight the path found by the algorithm.
