Question 1

Easy

What is the in-degree of a vertex?

💡 Hint: Think about how many edges arrive at a vertex.

Question 2

Easy

Can a vertex with zero in-degree be processed first in topological sorting?

💡 Hint: If no tasks depend on it, it can go first!

Question 1

What is the primary goal of topological sorting?

  • To find the shortest path
  • To order vertices respecting dependencies
  • To find cycles in a graph

💡 Hint: Think about the purpose of ordering in task management.

Question 2

True or False: A graph must be acyclic to perform a topological sort.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design an algorithm to implement topological sorting with an input of edges in a directed graph. What are the expected outcomes?

💡 Hint: Think about how you can maintain order while processing.

Question 2

Consider a scenario with tasks {A, B, C, D} and dependencies {A->B, A->C, B->D}. What is a possible topological order?

💡 Hint: Every time you select a task, ensure no others depend on it that haven't been completed.
