Write a Maze Explorer program that uses stacks and queues to implement an algorithm to escape from a maze. The overall pseudocode of the algorithm is the following. The algorithm can be implemented using a stack or a queue. What are the pros and cons of each?

create an empty stack of locations to explore.push the start location onto the stack.

while (stack is not empty) {	pop a location L from the stack.	if we have we pulled L from the stack before:		no need to explore it again, so skip L.	if L is the end location:		the end was reachable!	else, L is a new reachable non-finish location, so explore it:		add all non-wall adjacent maze locations to the stack.		record the fact that we have explored L.}if the stack is empty, the finish is unreachable.
