In a square maze, we can have multiple steps from ‘s’ to reach ‘e’ with one place that can only be visited once. Example is in the image below. The problem:    Input: an integer followed by the maze.    Output: total number of unique steps. (no need to print the unique steps)    Task: Design an algorithm in pseudocode to print the total number of unique steps using a backtracking algorithm.
