i'm almost done with this program but i can't figure out how to shoo the wumpus. i'm stuck as to how the shot direction has the wumpus in there.
it's the last part of the main method is where i put it..please help thanks
import java.util.*;
public class playWumpus
{
//initMaze METHOD
//put the pits and wumpus into the world
public static void initMaze(char [][] maze)
{
Random r = new Random();
for (int row = 0; row <4; row ++)
{
for (int col = 0; col<6; col ++)
{
maze[row][col] = '0';
}
}
int pitRow, pitCol;
for (int pitNum = 0; pitNum <4; pitNum++)
{
pitRow = r.nextInt(4); //randomly choose row
pitCol = r.nextInt(6); //randomly choose column
if (pitRow == 3 && pitCol == 0)//start location
{
pitCol=5;
}
maze [pitRow][pitCol] = 'p'; //places the pits in the maze randomly
}
maze [r.nextInt(4)][r.nextInt(6)] = 'w'; //places the wumpus randomly in the maze
}// end of Maze method
//CHECKMOVE method
//possible outcomes: run into the wall , fall into the pit, eaten by wumpus,
//feel breeze, smell stench, nothing.
public static int checkMove(char [] [] maze, int newRow, int newCol)
{
//checks if they run into a wall
if (newRow<0 || newRow>3 || newCol<0 || newCol>5)
{
System.out.println("You hit a wall");
return 0;
// it will return to the main method and places 0 in the state variable
}
else if (maze[newRow][newCol] == 'p')
//this checks the maze if there is a P in that location
{
System.out.println("You fall into a pit");
return 2;
}
else if (maze[newRow][newCol] == 'w')//checks for the wumstem.out.println("You've eaten by the Wumpus!!");
return 2;
}
//checks for the breeze (right,left,down,up)
if (
(newCol>0 && maze[newRow][newCol-1] == 'p') ||
(newCol<5 && maze[newRow][newCol+1] =='p') ||
(newRow>0 && maze[newCol][newRow-1] == 'p') ||
(newRow<3 && maze[newCol][newRow+1] =='p')
)
{
System.out.println("You feel a breeze");
}
return 1;
}//end of the maze method
public static void main(String [ ] args)

if ( shootDir == 1 )

}
}
}while (state!=2);
}//end of main
