Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a directed graph with nodes 1 to 4 and edges (1, 2), (2, 3), and (3, 4), determine the transitive closure using Warshall's algorithm.

💡 Hint: Visualize each step of matrix updates to track connectivity.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider a directed graph with a cycle. How would Warshall's algorithm adapt to ensure all nodes in the cycle reflect their connectivity?

💡 Hint: Identify the cycle and how its nodes interact as intermediates.
