"""
The A* algorithm combines features of uniform-cost search and pure heuristic search to
efficiently compute optimal solutions.

The A* algorithm is a best-first search algorithm in which the cost associated with a
node is f(n) = g(n) + h(n), where g(n) is the cost of the path from the initial state to
node n and h(n) is the heuristic estimate or the cost or a path from node n to a goal.

The A* algorithm introduces a heuristic into a regular graph-searching algorithm,
essentially planning ahead at each step so a more optimal decision is made. For this
reason, A* is known as an algorithm with brains.
