Huge kudos to @CJW ’ s mentoring skills!
My maze, and its more complex cousin below, are very advanced. I had to build tools to emulate loops, functions and local variables. Unfortunately, CS is not the best language to learn programming (I would suggest Python), so many solutions are more convoluted than they should be. But @CJW is right that you can start small and add complexity as you get more experienced. Good luck!
