Which is better for pathfinding: greedy search vs BFS? Pros and cons? or Greedy search vs BFS—when wo

BFS is exhaustive, greedy search is... optimistic.

If you *know* your heuristic’s solid (like in well-mapped environments), greedy wins for speed. Otherwise, BFS is the safe bet.

For tools, try visualizing them on VisuAlgo—seeing the difference side-by-side helps a ton.

Also, greedy search vs BFS isn’t just about speed vs accuracy—it’s about *how much you trust your data*.
