Reduce large maze to single width corridors This reduces the permutations for a x x x b x To one (two steps north) from four (two steps north; one east, two north, one west; one east, one north, one west, one north; and one north, one east, one north, one west). Longer corridors were worse! We would filter this in the "been here before via another path" but that's still a lot of lookups in lists, which is inefficient.

-module(basic). % Define the module name
-export([mirror/1]). % Note the Prolog-like notiation - "mirror function takes one parameter)
% Compilation is done from within "erl" using "c(module_name)"

% This function will be called as "basic:mirror(thing)"
mirror(Anything) -> Anything.
