Technically walls, snakeskin and the snake itself would \fBnot\fP be an obstacle in real life.
The shed snakeskin is not an obstacle but walls can be and so can the snake itself.
Also snakes grow by moulting (technical term for shedding) so when the snake leaves its snakeskin behind it really ought to grow but instead it shrinks; this means negative shedding ought to have the snake grow and positive shedding have the snake - what?
It's a misnomer: it took fewer bytes and the negative shedding is a positive consequence of unsigned arithmetic.
