Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a graph representation for a small airline network with at least ten cities and various directed paths. Then, specify which data structure you would use and justify your choice.

💡 Hint: Consider how many connections there are versus the total number of cities to decide on the structure.

Challenge 2 Hard

If you needed to find the shortest path from city A to city D in a network of five cities and some paths are blocked, outline how you would adjust your graph and modify your approach using an efficient algorithm.

💡 Hint: Think about how removing paths alters the network and impacts computational strategies.
