Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a DAG with vertices A, B, C, and edges A->B, A->C, B->C, what is a possible topological order?

💡 Hint: Focus on the dependencies before drawing the order.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a vertex D has an in-degree of 2 and is eliminated, how would that affect the graph?

💡 Hint: Think about how dependencies work.
