Graph traversals

The concept of traversing across various nodes (or vertices) in a graph along connected edges is termed as graph traversal. The traversing across nodes is typically organized, but can sometimes be random. However, in both the scenarios, traversing begins from a specified start node and ends at a specified final node. Usually, the start and final nodes are not directly connected. In order to establish an indirect connection, a selective organized search is instantiated across the various connected paths. Graph traversal algorithms are generally designed to begin at a given start node and then search for subsequent connected nodes before terminating at the given final node.

Additionally, these traversing algorithms also need to factor ...
