I have the same problem, like this question.
Sadly I need all possible paths between two fields in a hexagonal grid in exactly n steps, but without loops. Right now, if n_steps is much greater than the shortest path between those fields, I will have lots of loops.
I am struggling to find a fitting recursive function, which will help me write down the paths in a list of lists.
My function looks like this:
def find_paths_from_to_with_length(self, pos_1,pos_2,n_steps):
coordinate_1= self.find_coordinates(pos_1)
neighbour_pos_1= self.coordinates[coordinate_1].neighbour_list
if n_steps == 1:
if pos_2 in neighbour_pos_1:
return [[(pos_1,pos_2)]]
return []
if pos_1 == pos_2:
return []
all_paths = []
for node in neighbour_pos_1:
neighbor_all_paths = self.find_paths_from_to_with_length(node,pos_2,n_steps-1)
for path in neighbor_all_paths:
print("PATH: ",path)
all_paths.append([(pos_1,node)] + path)
return all_paths
Anyone has a solution for this problem?
