Re: Inaugural Programming Challenge

I think @Marlow's new solution is the best anyone will come up with. It scales linearly with dimensions and logarithmically with iterations. While the number of iterations is not constant per a constant input, it allows converges faster than the standard A* algorithm and it does not matter how large the search space is.

I was hoping to do one of these challenges every few months, but it doesn't seem like it got very much interest.
