Exercise: Zeta Mazes

A sneak peek into zeta mazes

We've learned two more kinds of grids, which in turn have let us create mazes with more exotic looks. We don't have to create an entirely new layout to create an entirely new look, though!

Zeta mazes are formed on the same rectangular grid we've come to know and love, but in addition to the north/south and east/west connections we've used before, these allow cells to connect at 45° angles (corner to corner).
