Here is my code. What is wrong?

The basic concept of your code is a good start, but you need to consider how to prevent your hero from back tracking. My hero got stuck with your code going up and down when backtracking sent him back up first. Also, instead of making a priority of if’s, make sure you check for all possibilities, then pick one that isn’t going backwards, unless you hit a dead end.

you are supposed to use your own code to pass this level not by using other’s code
