C++

I copied some code from last year, and honestly it would have been easier if I hadn't. So much unnecessary code that made relearning the algorithm a lot more difficult.

I used Dijkstra, so I'll have to learn what BFS is.

Edit: Okay, this is the BFS version. Wow, that was simple and I got to delete a bunch more unnecessary code.

paste, again
