Path-Finding

This project implements A* and Dijkstra’s algorithms to find the shortest path on a grid, optimized using a precomputed heuristic function for A*.

---

Features

• C++ implementation with no external dependencies—pure, easy-to-understand code.
• Supports Dijkstra’s algorithm for guaranteed shortest path.
• Includes A* with a precomputed heuristic to speed up pathfinding.
• Designed for clarity and learning—ideal for students or developers exploring pathfinding algorithms.

---

Files

• main.cpp — Contains the entry point and setup for running the pathfinding algorithms.
• Pathfinder.cbp, Pathfinder.layout — Project files for Code::Blocks (optional; for IDE setup).

Usage

1. Clone or download the repository.
2. Open the project in Code::Blocks, or compile manually using a C++ compiler.

   g++ main.cpp -o pathfinder
