Hi there, im not going to write actual code, but will explain logic

assume you have some amount of wolves and seeps

  1. Get in array list all your wolves

  2. Get in array list all your shipps

  3. choose randomly any sheep from sheep array

  4. assign it to any random wolf in wolf array

  5. remove that sheep from sheep array

  6. remove that wolf from sheep array

  7. repeat the loop until wolfs or sheeps array size is zero

you can make it even more complex by choosing not a random sheep for a random would, but closing the closest sheep for the closest wolf, so you will have to iterate trough whole array anch check the distance and find the closest one and then, assign that sheep as a target for a wolf and remove them both from the lists as they are already processed itmes
