Hi everyone, here's a picture of Samuel's A* implémentation in action :

While it may seem strange at first to see partially explored paths, one has
to understand that A* is a breadth-first search augmented with an heuristic
(in this configuration the sum of X and Y distances since you can only walk
in four directions, no diagonals allowed). The algorithm may explore many
routes at the same time: when it gets farther from the goal, it may switch
to another partially explored path in case it is more promising after all.
