This algorithm is built in way it vividly illustrates the myriad potential pathways a nimble rat can traverse within a square maze, replete with immovable obstructions strategically placed. The maze itself is a meticulously crafted arena, with dimensions measuring N x N. It presents a formidable challenge, with designated starting and concluding points situated at the top-left and bottom-right cells, respectively. Some cells grant passage, while others serve as unwavering barriers, creating a compelling puzzle for the rat to unravel.
The rat's movement adheres to strict rules: it can advance only one step at a time, it can execute movements in either backward, rightward, downward, or upward directions . As the rat embarks on its odyssey from the initial vertex to the ultimate destination, this application undertakes the intricate task of determining the feasibility of reaching the destination. Once established, the application meticulously traces and marks the correct pathways that lead the rat to its victorious journey's end..
