Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a set of tasks A, B, C, and D with dependencies (A -> B, A -> C, B -> D), create a proper Hasse diagram and perform a topological sort.
💡 Hint: Once you visualize it, look for minimal elements for sorting.
Illustrate a scenario where there are three tasks that can be done in any order but depend on a fourth completion. How would that look in both a Hasse diagram and via topological sorting?
💡 Hint: Draw connections and analyze the flow of dependencies.
