Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Construct a DAG from the following tasks: E - buy ingredients, F - prepare food, G - serve food, where E and F must be done before G. Then provide a topological sort.

💡 Hint: Think about dependencies and order in which tasks can be performed.

Question 2

Given a project with tasks M, N, O such that M precedes N and O, and O must precede N, depict the DAG and explain your topological order.

💡 Hint: Map out the tasks visually to ensure correct dependencies.
