This is a Linux GUI application to be able to help visualize how different search algorithms find the goal. There starts with an empty grid where the user can select a start tile, a goal tile, and add "walls" that get in the way of the search algorithm.
- Interactive Visualization: Watch algorithms in action with step-by-step visualization.
- Multiple Algorithms Supported: Includes Breadth First Search (BFS), Depth First Search (DFS), Astar, and Greedy searches.
- Multiple Heuristics Supported: Watch how different heuristics affect the results of a search.
- Customization: Adjust the grid to see how algorithms behave under different conditions.
- Educational Resource: Useful for students, educators, and anyone interested in algorithms to learn and understand their inner workings.
First download the SDL packages that are listed in the install_packages.sh. Then you can run make run which will build and launch the program. All intermediate files are placed in the build directory, with the executable being placed in the root of the directory.
Once ran, press m for the menu, and explore the different ways to interact with the program.
