Turtle Maze Challenge

Hi! You may remember me talking about a website called repl.it. This time using repl.it, we found a code that made a very hard maze. Our challenge was to get our little character through the maze. I know it sounds pretty easy, because all you have to do is, go forward 100 pixels or turn right 90 degrees. But, as great as that would be it’s unfortunately not that easy. What makes it SUPER HARD. Is that each time you run your code, the maze is different every time! Not so easy anymore… huh? At first, I didn’t know that it was going to be random each time. So I did like forward 100 pixels and used codes like that. But, when I realized that it was different each time, I knew it was going to be A LOT harder than I thought. I struggled a lot, and guess what (even today I STILL haven’t finished it yet). But, it was still very cool and fun. In order for it to follow where the gaps were each time I ran the code, I had to go back into the code to see how the actual maze was made. I had to use that code and use my awesome math skills to make it so my character would also be different each time. But, even then I still didn’t make it past the 1st line. In the end I learned something, that its ok to fail, and in your failure you learn.
