Commodore 64's Basic random maze generator:

10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10

Somebody managed to write a whole book about this random maze generator. http://10print.org/


That book is remarkable!


It prints either \ or /, not sure how amazing that is. It also isn't a maze, considering it's unlikely any of those paths leads to an exit.


Fair point. Making a a traditional 1-solution maze in 1 line is qualitatively more impressive than making a complex pattern of passages in 1 line.


I think you have quite missed the point.


I've got to say, that is truly wonderful.
