Assignment 2 is now available. Submission deadline is Friday, Oct. 23. Here are the links to test cases used in grading of programming assignment #2: Test file 1, Test file 2, Test file 3,Test file 4,Test file 5.

Assignment #1 is now available. Submission deadline is Wednesday, September 16. Please follow the link "How to Submit a Programming Assignment" (above) for submission details.

As promised, here are functions you will need for developing and / or testing the program. First, the program that generates fields with randomly placed obstacles. This is the source code file, so save it in your directory and compile. Literal constants M and N determine the size of the field that will be generated (MxN). I will use this program to generate test cases. Please note that there is no need to include this code into your programs. Your input are files generated by this program.

Also, here follows the link to source code that reads input files which contain different fields of size MxN from a file. This program asks the user for the file name where the field is stored. Literal constants M and N define the field size. When you compile this program, it will be able to read the following field correctly (because M and N match the size of the field in the file).
