Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a graph where the number of cities (N) and direct flights (F) quadruples. How would you approach recalculating the path from city A to city B, and what factors would you account for?

💡 Hint: Think about how many more pathways you'll have to check and the efficiency of your chosen algorithm.

Challenge 2 Hard

If given a choice to minimize both time and cost for a flight path between two cities, how would you structure your algorithm to find the most feasible route?

💡 Hint: Consider the tradeoffs in your algorithm and how they impact your outputs.
