maze

Create and solve mazes in Python.

How to use

from maze import *

m = Maze()
m.create(25, 25, Maze.Create.BACKTRACKING)
m.save_maze()
m.solve((0, 0), (24, 24), Maze.Solve.DEPTH)
m.save_solution()

The code above creates the following pictures:

Algorithms

Creating

  • Recursive backtracking algorithm
  • Hunt and kill algorithm
  • Eller's algorithm
  • Sidewinder algorithm
  • Prim's algorithm
  • Kruskal's algorithm

Solving

  • Depth-first search
  • Breadth-first search

C

The recursive backtracking algorithm and depth-first search are also implemented in C. They are around 100x faster than their Python counterparts.

How to install

Simply go into the setup.py directory and run pip install . to install the package.

Requirements

  • NumPy
  • Pillow
  • pyprocessing if you want to run the visual examples
