Graph Search

After reading this chapter and engaging in the embedded activities and reflections, you should be able to:

• Define the neighborhood of a vertex.
• Identify a path from a source vertex to a destination vertex.
• State the General Graph Search problem.
• Identify reachable vertices in a graph from a source vertex.
• Identify a general solution to the general graph search problem.
• Generate and trace Graph search types by specifying how to explore the neighbor in the general search algorithm.
• Describe, trace, and implement the Breadth-First Search algorithm.
• Describe, trace, and implement the Depth-First Search algorithm.
• Identify which data structure supports each traversal/search type: breadth-first, depth-first
• Analyze the time complexity of BFS and DFS for each Graph implementation (list vs. matrix)

This chapter does not have a starter/solution code.
