a-star

This is a side project I did to demenstrate my knowledge of different algorithms that I learned while in college. After learning how pygame worked over the summer, I decided to use it in helping me make a visualizer.

Usage

1. Make sure you have python3 installed.

2. Install pygame. Type these in your terminal depending on your OS.

   Debian/Ubuntu/Mint:

   sudo apt-get install python3-pygame

   Windows:

   py -m pip install -U pygame --user

   MacOS:

   python3 -m pip install -U pygame==2.0.0.dev12 --user

3. Left click to add nodes. Orange being the start and turquoise being the end. Black is considered a barrier. Right click to delete nodes. Press space to solve and press c to clear the board.
