Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a weighted graph with specific edges and weights, apply Dijkstra's algorithm to determine the shortest path from vertex A to vertex D. Show each step of your calculations.

💡 Hint: Be meticulous with edge weights during updates.

Challenge 2 Hard

Create a scenario in which a decision must be made between a path with many edges and a path with higher costs but fewer edges. Justify your conclusion.

💡 Hint: Consider tolls vs. free roads in transportation.
