Help with AI enemies

Cubenox (2)
I need help with moving my enemies for a top "snake" view type of game. The objective is to get points and avoid enemies but I can't seem to figure out a way to make them move, in sort of a path OR randomly around the screen without disrupting the game.

Sorry if some of it is in Swedish but if there's anything you don't understand, ask.
It's a fairly simple game, but it's something I have to be done with until 7 feb. I'm nearly done with the actual game except dying and be able to lose.

Why a console game o.O

Also the easiest way would be to make command functions for you and the ai. Ex: Moving would be a command function.

Also is there a reason you are making it a console game? Seems a bit trivial compared to with graphics.

Well, it's homework basically, I'm in a programming class, the idea was to create our own game with a menu. :/
