Nanobots

	1999 High School Programming Contest Take Home Problem
	------------------------------------------------------

There are several files provided on this disk:

skeleton.cpp - This contains a skeleton nanobot which you can fill out
	     with your own good.  It is a good starting point for
	     your solution.  Code for IO is provided in the skeleton.

simulate.cpp - This is C++ code for a program that will take a map
	     file and the output of your solution and tell the score
	     and the number of illegal moves.  (See below)

plain.map    - The open plan sample map.

maze.map     - The maze sample map.

larger.map   - The larger sample map.


The Simulator

The simulator takes the following command line parameters.

simulate <options> <mapfile>

<options>:
-h  Display help
-v  Verbose mode (default)
-t  Terse mode (displays only the final score and number of illegal
	       -moves)
-c  Chris mode (displays the score and illegal moves for each command)
    This was added for our testing purposes and should be of little use
    to you.

<mapfile> is a map, and the output of your solution should be provided
as input.

Examples (assumes your solution is called nanobot:

nanobot > maze.txt
simulate maze.map < maze.txt

OR

type maze.map | nanobot | simulate maze.map
