Exclamation Newbie Help PLEASE!

Hey,

I've got this really hard assignment to do that i just cant crack.. I have to get a destination list from a file Map 04.
Then the user moves to another location via input, but that location has to be connected to the original location list (which in turn has to be connected to the specified start location.

It's step six on the file below.
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/compsci101s1c/assignments/A3/A3.pdf

I cant seem to find how to only allow valid destinations to be 'moved' to... Im really stuck any would appreciate any help.

Thanks, Heaps
Ash

MAP 04

/**
* @author Andrew Luxton-Reilly
* @version 22/03/04
*
* The Map class is used to hold the map used for the Maze application. The map is represented as
* a String containing a series of comma delimited connections. Each connection (path) takes the form of
* <MAP_IDENTIFIER>-<MAP_IDENTIFIER>.
*
* The identifiers used to name each location in the maze can be any length, but must be all in UPPER CASE.
*
* Map04 consists of multiple connections. An Entry point for the maze is also defined. It must be one
* of the <MAP_INDENTIFIER> which make up the connections.
*/
