Question 20 MSQ · 2.0 marks

**STATE SPACE** Recall the rabbits crossing puzzle from the practice assignment. Two groups of rabbits, each group at opposite ends of a path, want to cross the path by making only forward jumps: a rabbit can jump forward to an adjacent empty spot, or jump forward over one rabbit and land in an empty spot.
Source diagram or notation
The start state is **(RR-L)** , where **R** is a rabbit that wants to go right, and **L** is a rabbit that wants to go left, and the dash marks the empty spot. Construct all the states that are reachable from the start state and build a state space graph out of those states, call it Graph-21. Based on the above data, answer the given subquestions.
Which of the following states are reachable from the start state in exactly 3 moves?

Question 23 SHORT_TEXT · 1.0 marks

**SEARCH** The figure shows a map with several locations on a grid where each tile is 1x1 in size. The locations are at grid points and are connected by two-way edges. Take S as the start node and G as the goal node. The MoveGen function returns neighbours in alphabetical order. In all the algorithms below, the RemoveSeen procedure will remove nodes from the output of MoveGen if those nodes are present in OPEN/CLOSED lists. Use Manhattan distance when needed.
Source diagram or notation
When we say a node is inspected/expanded/refined it means: the node is picked up from OPEN, and goal test is called, if goal test fails then MoveGen is called and, depending on the algorithm, the neighbours are selectively placed in OPEN. Based on the above data, answer the given subquestions.
List the first 4 nodes (including the start node) inspected by Depth First Search. List the nodes in the order they were inspected. If the algorithm terminates early then list the nodes inspected up until termination. Enter a comma separated list of node labels. NO SPACES, TABS, DOTS, BRACKETS, PARENTHESIS OR UNWANTED CHARACTERS **Answer Format: S,X,Y,Z**
