This three-dimensional maze runner provides the player with a first-person view from inside a maze. Try to find your way out! You can generate maze files by following the instructions in Project 44, “Maze Runner 2D,” or by downloading maze files from https://invpy.com/mazes/.
The Program in ActionWhen you run mazerunner3d.py, the output will look like this:

--snip--This 3D-perspective ASCII art starts with the multiline string stored in ALL_OPEN. This string depicts a position in which no paths are closed off by walls. The program then draws the walls, stored in the CLOSED dictionary, on top of the ALL_OPEN string to generate the ASCII art for any possible combination of closed-off paths. For example, here’s how the program generates the view in which the wall is to the left of the player:
\ \

___|/ \|___ | | \|___

/ /The periods in the ASCII art in the source code get removed before the strings are displayed; they only exist to make entering the code easier, so you don’t insert or leave out blank spaces.
