   • input "make" to build the executable program "navigation1" and "navagation2" and relevant “.o” files
   • run excutable files:
     • for problem 1, input the executable file “./navigation1"
     • for problem 2, input the executable file "./navigation2"
   • input the coordinates of the starting node and the target node accordingly
   • get the results
