Hey there, let's talk about paths inside of a graph. We draw a directed weighted graph and compare node-based paths to edge-based paths. Node lists alone cannot tell which edge you took when parallel edges have different costs. Edge-based paths use tuples of start, destination and weight so every route is clear.
We also cover simple paths with no repeated edges or vertices, cyclic paths that start and end on the same node, and how a cycle proves the graph is cyclic. Then we explain DAGs, directed acyclic graphs, with examples that stay acyclic and ones that gain cycles.
This sets up algorithms for later videos. Leave a comment with topics you want next. Thanks for watching and please subscribe.
