Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a 5x5 grid with holes at (1,2), (2,1), and (3,3), calculate the number of distinct paths from (0,0) to (4,4). Discuss your process.

💡 Hint: Break down the problem row by row or column by column.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze the implications of having a dense line of holes in a grid. How would that affect path computations utilizing dynamic programming?

💡 Hint: Consider how paths can be blocked entirely by closely placed holes.
