Maze Solver

The problem is very simple: you need to find the way out of the maze.

Maze is given as a rectangular matrix of 0 and 1 characters.

1110001
0010001
1111111
0000101
1111101

Maze string should contain width and height of the maze in first line. The maze itself will follow, with 1 depicting passages and 0 for impassable walls. You have to provide to maze solver Entry and Exit points and it will find the shortest path for you. See code below for configuration example:

{
  maze: '31 29

  start: [

    { x: 30, y: 28, label: 'B' },
    { x:  0, y: 28, label: 'C' }
  ],
  end: [ { x: 0, y: 0, label: 'X' } ]
}

Result will show how many steps and in which direction from the given point you have to make to reach the goal. Where U denotes step up, L is one step left, R and D are steps right and down respectively. The result will be produced in compact way where number denotes the number of steps in the current direction, like this:

[ '4L6D4L4D4L2D8L2U4R4U4L4U8L2U2L',
  '4U4L4U2L8D6L4U2R2U2L4U2R2U8L2D2L8U4R4U4L4U8L2U2L',
  '12U2R2D2R2D2R2U4R8U4R4U4L4U8L2U2L' ]

The result is an array sorted by the starting point label name.
