Have you ever had a problem that seemed simple on the surface, but turned out to be quite a CHALLENGING? This little mouse walking through a maze problem turned out to be just that. All we had to do was figure out how many ways the little mouse could go through the maze to get the CHEESE. Turns out there were many more ways than could be expected at first glance.
With this problem, G8 students got to practice the “Greedy Algorithm” where we always tried to take the course closest to the top of the maze. This problem required perseverance and those who worked at it, got RESULTS! Here it is below. If you can solve it, you’re my latest hero!
