DFS Maze Generator
<p>I'm currently working on a maze generating program, using a depth first search.  I have the following code, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.  I'm trying to have X's in between to say which ones are walls.  But it's overwriting them, and putting paths right next to each other.  Any help would be great.  Below is the output.</p>
