hello everyone, and welcome to the amazing contest. your task, should you choose to accept it, is to write a program that generates a maze, and a second program that traverses a maze.
the maze will be size 50 by 50 cells. each cell will either be blank (can move through) or X (cannot move through)
every maze should have two openings along the outer wall (the outer wall counts toward the 50 by 50, so really it's more 48 by 48) and a path that goes from one to the other.
the score you receive is as follows: the average time (in seconds) it takes someone to traverse your maze/the average time it takes you to traverse someone else's maze.
you can have just one long winding path, or many paths with dead ends, a single static maze, or a more randomly generated one, its up to you!
I'll be coding the contest in python, though java is fine for submission.
