Depth-First Search pattern

Flood Fill

Given an image grid, a starting pixel, and a new color, repaint that pixel and every pixel reachable from it through 4-directionally adjacent pixels of the same original color, then return the modified image. Watch it run step by step, then write your own pseudocode and get it checked by AI.
