depth first searchdefinition code example

Example 1: depth first search

// performs a depth first search (DFS)
// nodes are number from 1 to n, inclusive
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;


vector<vector<int>> adj;  // adjacency list
// visited[v] = true if v has been visited by dfs
vector<bool> visited;

bool all_edges_are_directed = true;

void dfs(int v) {
    // determines if dfs has been done on v
    if(visited[v])
        return;
    visited[v] = true;

    // write code here to do stuff with node v

    // traverse nodes that are adjacent to v
    for (int u: adj[v]){
        dfs(u);
    }
}

int main() {
    int n;  // number of vertices
    int m;  // number of edges
    cin >> n >> m;
    adj = vector<vector<int>>(n+1, vector<int>());
    visited = vector<bool>(n+1, false);

    for(int i = 0; i < m; ++i) {
        // nodes a and b have an edge between them
        int a, b;
        cin >> a >> b;

        if(all_edges_are_directed)
            adj[a].push_back(b);
        else {
            adj[a].push_back(b);
            adj[b].push_back(a);
        }
    }
    
    // do depth first search on all nodes
    for(int i = 1; i <= n; ++i){
        dfs(i);
    }
}
