A visualization tool made in Pygame for various pathfinding algorithms.

Pathfinding is closely related to the shortest path problem, within graph theory, which examines how to identify the path that best meets some criteria (shortest, cheapest, fastest, etc) between two points in a large network.

• BFS (Breadth First Search)
• Dijkstra's algorithm
• A* Search algorithm

• User can specify the start node🟥, end node🟪 and barrier nodes⬛.
• To run:
  

 BFS       : Press the 'b' key

 Dijkstra  : Press the 'd' key

 A* Search : Press the 'a' Key

 Reset     : Press the 'c' Key

 Reset the visualization part: Press the space bar

• User can reset the whole board or they can just clear out the visualization part .
• More information on the features and 'How to use' are given in the tutorial window of the app.
• If the program failed to find a path between start and end node:
  (for eg: start or end node covered with barriers leaving no open cell to move.)
  Then the user will get a popup window informing that it couldn't find a path.
