In the sport $($or "activity", depending on your level of fitness$/$competitiveness$)$ of orienteering, you are given a map with terrain information, elevation contours, and a set or sequence of locations to visit $("$controls$").$ There is a combination of athletic skills and planning skills required to succeed $-$ a smarter competitor who can figure out the best way to get from point to point may beat out a more athletic competitor who makes poor choices!

In this lab, you are given computer$-$friendly inputs so that you can use an algorithm to determine the best path for you to take depending on your ability.
