Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design and implement a Python function that uses breadth-first search to determine the shortest path from a starting grid cell to a target cell. Outline the edge cases that must be handled.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how you would manage the marking of cells to avoid re-exploration!

Question 2

Given a particular configuration of knight moves on a chessboard, describe a breadth-first search algorithm to find all reachable squares from a given starting position. Discuss the complexity of this algorithm.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Write down the knight's possible moves and how they'd affect the number of squares explored.
