Recap
Congratulations on finishing this course on graph algorithms in C++! Let’s recap what we learned in each chapter.
- First, we discovered the fundamental concepts and terminology of graph theory, such as directed, undirected, and weighted graphs.
- Next, we explored how graphs can be represented as data structures in programs, using adjacency lists and adjacency matrices.
- We traversed graphs using BFS and DFS and studied applications of graph traversal, such as computing strongly connected components.
- We also computed shortest paths in weighted graphs using Dijkstra’s algorithm and the Floyd-Warshall
