Solve this problem using the A* search algorithm.

A machine is going to navigate through a series of cave connected by straight tunnels(Please see image). It starts navigating from the A to the last cave G. Some tunnels can only be navigated in one direction. Arrows are showing which cave can be reached from which other cave. For example from cave D to B is possible, however from cave B to D is not possible. All the coordinates ar given in the picture.

 Please show the calculations and steps.
