Hi Pat,

That doesn't always work:

+-----+
| +-+ |
|A| |   exit!
| +-+ |
+-----+

If you imagine yourself at point A, facing north, then if you touch
the wall on your right with your right hand and start walking you'll
never get out. This sort of cut-off wall is often added to 'real'
mazes so that people can't use your method to get out.
