Question 1

What is a Minimum Cost Spanning Tree?

  • A tree that connects all nodes with minimum edges
  • A tree with the least edge weight
  • A cycle-free graph

💡 Hint: Focus on the 'minimum cost' aspect.

Question 2

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a set of vertices and weighted edges, illustrate both Prim's and Kruskal's algorithms step by step on your graph.

💡 Hint: Ensure to represent cycles correctly throughout the process.

Question 2

In a graph where weights are randomly assigned, identify a scenario where Kruskal’s might be more efficient than Prim's.

💡 Hint: Consider the nature of the graph and available edges.
