F#unctional Londoners Meetup Group:Pacman Kata
Pacman Kata

Pacman finds himself in a grid filled with monsters. Will he be able to eat all the dots on the board before the monsters eat him?

  • pacman is on a grid filled with dots
  • pacman eats dots
  • pacman stops on walls
  • ghosts follow pacman...

Lets start the new year with a hands-on coding Kata by implementing Pacman. Suitable for people new to F# who'd like to learn more and for more experienced F# developers looking to practice their skills. See also: http://codingdojo.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?KataPacMan for more info.
