Would be much appreciated:

# Pick random location for the Player
# Pick random location for the exit door
# Pick random location for the monster
# Draw player in grid
# Take input for movement
# move player, unless invalid move (past edges of grid)
# check for win or loss
# clear screen, redraw grid
