Heres my code:

Here's the txt file:

11
xxxxxxxxxxx
xpxxpxxpgxx
xppppxppxxx
xxxppxpppxx
xpppxxxxpxx
xxxppppppxx
xpppxxxxxxx
xxxpxxxppxx
xxxpppppxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx

Question: When I type coordinates at beginning of program, X seams to the Y coordinate and visa versa? eg type X = 1 and Y = 2 shows x - wall and not p - path
