Thanks to Jamis Buck Book : Mazes for programmers

Requirements

PYGAME : pip install pygame

Commands Controls:

Esc to close the program
Enter to start to genrate the maze
H to show the heuristic cost value
S to show the path from the starting to the goal node
Space to switch between the color modes

files

run main.py for grid mazes
run polarMaze.py for polarGrid maze
run hexMaze.py for hexGrid maze
run imageMaze.py for maskGrid maze
run weightedMaze.py for weightedGrid maze

you can also braid your mazes when it done , by calling the function grid.Braid(). braiding a maze simply assures that the maze doens't have any deadends

colors modes

Mode 1 : Mode 2 :

other Maze Grid:

Polar Grid : HexGrid : maskGrid :

Bugs & Unsolved Issues

The code need a lot of refactoring
the visualization of the polar maze need a lot of improvement
the the imagemaze.py file need to be refactored for it to be able to work on every size of images , for now it's only working for images wich has the same size with the screen size
the recursive backtracker class need a little bit of cleaning
add Comments
implement the ui interface
the djikistra algorithm need to take the weights of cells in consideration for weightedGrid
