The Wumpus world is a 4x4 grid of squares which contains a Wumpus, a pile of gold, and any number of pits. Each grid contains at most one of these things or nothing. There is a robot in this world starting from the lower left corner of the world. The robot’s purpose is to get the gold and take it back, without running into Wumpus or any pits or going off the grid. The robot can get different information when being around the certain things like it can feel the ‘breeze’ near a pit or ‘horrible smell’ near a Wumpus. Additionally, the robot has one chance to shoot and kill the Wumpus with its arrow.
