BFS Algorithm
Input:
A graph GGG represented as an adjacency list or adjacency matrix.
A starting vertex sss.
Output:
A sequence of nodes in BFS traversal order.
1. Initialize Data Structures:
o Create a queue to manage nodes for processing.
o Create a visited list or array to track visited nodes. Initialize all entries to false.
2. Start with the Source Node:
o Mark the starting node sss as visited: visited[s] = true.
o Enqueue sss into the queue.
3. Process the Queue:
o While the queue is not empty:
1. Dequeue a node uuu from the front of the queue.
2. Process uuu (e.g., print it, store it in a result list, etc.).
3. For each unvisited neighbor vvv of uuu:
Mark vvv as visited: visited[v] = true.
Enqueue vvv into the queue.
4. Repeat:
o Continue until all reachable nodes from sss have been visited.
5. End:
o The traversal is complete. If desired, repeat the process for other components of the graph (if
disconnected).
DFS::::::
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <stack>
using namespace std;
// Function to perform DFS iteratively using a stack
void dfs(int start, const vector<vector<int>>& adjList) {
vector<bool> visited(adjList.size(), false);
stack<int> s;
s.push(start);
visited[start] = true;
cout << "DFS Traversal: ";
while (!s.empty()) {
int node = s.top();
s.pop();
cout << node << " ";
for (int neighbor : adjList[node]) {
if (!visited[neighbor]) {
visited[neighbor] = true;
s.push(neighbor);
cout << endl;
int main() {
int vertices, edges;
cout << "Enter the number of vertices and edges: ";
cin >> vertices >> edges;
vector<vector<int>> adjList(vertices);
cout << "Enter the edges (u v):" << endl;
for (int i = 0; i < edges; ++i) {
int u, v;
cin >> u >> v;
adjList[u].push_back(v);
adjList[v].push_back(u); // For an undirected graph
int start;
cout << "Enter the starting node: ";
cin >> start;
dfs(start, adjList);
return 0;
}
DFS Algorithm
Algorithm for DFS
1. Initialize:
o Mark all nodes as unvisited (using a boolean array visited).
o Create a stack or use the recursive call stack for traversal.
2. Start DFS from the Source Node:
o Mark the source node as visited.
o Process the node (e.g., print it).
3. Traverse Neighbors:
o For each unvisited neighbor of the current node:
In recursive DFS, call the DFS function with the neighbor.
In iterative DFS, push the neighbor onto the stack.
4. Continue Until All Connected Nodes are Visited:
o Continue the process until all nodes in the stack or call stack have been exhausted.
