Thought Exercise: Negative Weights

Explore approaches to manage negative edge weights in weighted digraphs for single-source shortest paths. Understand why Dijkstra’s algorithm fails with negative weights and discover a method of adjusting weights to maintain shortest paths, enabling the use of efficient algorithms without negative weight cycles.

We'll cover the following...
