Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which traversal method would you use to find all possible paths in a maze?
  • Step 1: Understand that a maze is a structure with paths and dead ends.
  • Step 2: Recognize that you need to explore all possible paths to find every route through the maze.
  • Step 3: Learn about traversal methods. Two common methods are Depth-First Search (DFS) and Breadth-First Search (BFS).
  • Step 4: Realize that DFS goes deep into one path before trying another, which is useful for finding all paths.
  • Step 5: Use DFS to explore each path in the maze, marking paths as you go.
  • Step 6: When you reach a dead end or finish a path, backtrack to explore other options.
  • Step 7: Continue this process until all paths have been explored.
