I'm not really sure if there's something wrong with my code or the way I considered playing the game is different than what's expected. My thought process is that, we are able to use any of the 4 possible moves, and at each move we want to make the most optimal move, rather than just get to the edge and try out best not to cross it. My logic is that we would always try to get to the centre of the board by reducing/increasing x or y while compromising the other one by the least amount possible. Somehow my results just don't match with the expected one. And it's such a long script I don't even know where things might be going wrong.
