Snake js

This is my javascript implementation of the popular snake game. The most important part of the algorithm is the code that handles the movement of the snake, implemented in the move method. First the snake was implemented as a list(Queue) of cordinates, and the movement is practically poping the last item in the list, increasing the coordinate of the popped item by a fixed value depending on the direction and inserting it into the list from the other end.

You are also free to add a user interface to this implementation

code snippet

var snakes = new snake()
snakes.init();
snakes.move("up");
snakes.move("left");
console.log("state init", snakes.getState())

Methods

• Init

This is the initialize method, it is the first method to be called once you create a new snake object. it is responsible for generating the initial snake position and the position of the initial food

This method returns the current total point accumulated in the game
