2) BFS refresher: Suppose you have an n × n chessboard and a knight placed in one of the squares. You
would like to find out the fewest number of moves needed to reach a given target square. Design an algorithm
for this task stated formally below:
Input: An n × n chess board, a starting square S, and a target square T.
Output: The fewest number of moves a knight takes to move from S to T.

A maze is a two dimensional array of chars. Walls are represented as '#'s and ' ' are empty squares. The maze entrance is always in the first row, second column (and will always be an empty square). There will be zero or more exits along the outside perimeter. To be considered an exit, it must be reachable from the entrance. The entrance is not an exit.Here are some example mazes:mazeA7 9# # ###### # # ## # # #### # ## ##### ## ########## RequirementsWrite a MazeSolver class in Java. This program needs to prompt the user for a maze filename and then explore the maze. Display how many exits were found and the positions (not indices) of the valid exits. Your program can display the valid exits found in any order. See the examples below for exact output requirements. Also, record…arrow_forwardWith the Binary Search algorithm, the algorithm can be developed by the loop-based form as well as a recursive form. Which of the following is not true? O If the item is not found, the loop version returns when the range bounds reach, but the recursive version finishes when the recursive depth is more than half the initial search range. The search range starts with the whole array, and only the recursive version can work on a subrange passed through arguments. O Both forms of the program divide the search range repeatedly in half. O If the item is found, the loop version returns from the entire method, whereas the recursive version returns from one level of recursion.arrow_forward1. A certain computer algorithm executes four times as many operations when it is run with an input of size n as when it is run with an input of size n – 1. Here, n > 1 is an integer. When the algorithm is run with an input of size 1, it executes 12 operations. How many operations does the algorithm execute when it is run with an input of size 5? How many operations does the algorithm execute when it is run with an input of size n?arrow_forward
