Make a grid that the rover can drive around on by implementing a MarsGrid type. You’ll need to use a mutex to make it safe for use by multiple goroutines at once. It should look something like the following:

It // returns nil if the point is already occupied or the point is // outside the grid. Otherwise it returns a value that can be // used to move to different places on the grid. func (g *MarsGrid) Occupy(p image.Point) *Occupier // Occupier represents an occupied ...
