Question 1.
What does BFS stand for?
Show hintHide hint
Think of how it explores graphs.
Question 2.
Name one way to represent a graph.
Show hintHide hint
Consider the structures used to show edges.
3Question 3.
What does BFS primarily explore?
- Edges
- Vertices
- Weight of edges
Show hintHide hint
Remember the structure of the algorithm.
4Question 4.
True or False: BFS can find paths in weighted graphs.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how weights affect path choice.
Question 5.
In a given graph, apply BFS starting from vertex A. What vertices are visited, and in what order?
Show hintHide hint
Remember to only traverse to unvisited neighbors.
Question 6.
Devise a modification to BFS that allows it to handle weighted graphs, ensuring all nodes are still reached while considering edge weights.
Show hintHide hint
Consider how priorities change your exploration approach.
