David Murray, The 8-Bit Guy, made a video about his new take on the "10 PRINT" random maze program for the Commodore 64. It prints the maze very fast indeed, and he made reference to my previous attempts and showed how his is faster. We’ll take a look at @The8BitGuy’s code, clarify a few things about the comparison, and see if we can further improve on his interesting idea. #10print
