Project #1

Recreate the maze generator in the YouTube links below in Python. (The original code is JavaScript and the p5.js graphics library.)

Project #2

There is a difference between the older Wikipedia article "Maze generation algorithm" seen in the YouTube videos and the current (as of December 2025) Wikipedia article "Maze generation algorithm". Even though the two algorithms are basically the same, I think the newer algorithm is clearer/simpler/better-structured.

Create a maze generator in Python using the newer algorithm.

For more information about the newer algorithm click HERE .

Please note, the original YouTube code has some good ideas about implementing a maze generator. Take a look at the code. Watch the videos.
