Graph Basics

Graph
A graph is a set of vertices and a set of edges, each of which connects two vertices.
Loop
An edge that connects a vertex to itself
Simple Graph
A graph with no loops and no more than one connection between any set of vertices.

Representing Graphs

We can store a graph as a list of edges. It can also be stored as a matrix. Or a list of lists, the top list being all the vertices and each sub list being the vertices it's connected to.

Density
Edges / vertices2

Exploring Graphs

Finding routes, ensuring connectivity, solving mazes.

Path
A sequence of vertices such that each vertex is connected to the next by an edge.

Goes through algorithm to find all connected nodes.

DFS: Depth first search.
