Constructor Detail

MazeSolver

public MazeSolver(CS15Robot andyBot)

This is the MazeSolver's constructor. You should not write anything in here. The important part here is that we call the solve method for you.

Parameters:

andyBot - An instance of a CS15Robot to solve the maze

Method Detail

enterPassword

public void enterPassword(int password)

A SUPPORT method, used to submit a password to solve the roadblock. You'll want to pass in the mathematical expression 4 times x minus 6.

Parameters:

password - An integer from the mathematical expression

getHint

public int getHint()

A SUPPORT method that returns a random int. The roadblock has a different password each time you run the program, but this int is an important clue that you'll need.

Returns:

A random integer that is an important clue to solve the roadblock

solve

public void solve(CS15Robot andyBot)

A STENCIL method where you should call methods on your CS15Robot instance to move it. You should also call getHint and solveRoadBlock methods from this method. getHint returns an int and solveRoadBlock takes in an int. Think about how you can combine these two methods to give solveRoadBlock the same int that getHint returns. Here's a clue: nesting!

Parameters:

andyBot - An instance of CS15Robot to solve the maze

solveRoadBlock

public void solveRoadBlock(int x)

A STENCIL method where you should call enterPassword to get past the road block. The password you should give to enterPassword is 4 times x minus 6. This method should be called from the solve method, and you should pass in the int that is returned from the getHint method.

Parameters:

x - An integer returned from calling getHint()
