  2. Depth-first search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth-first_search

    It is also possible to use depth-first search to linearly order the vertices of a graph or tree. There are four possible ways of doing this: A preordering is a list of the vertices in the order that they were first visited by the depth-first search algorithm. This is a compact and natural way of describing the progress of the search, as was ...

  3. Maze generation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze_generation_algorithm

    Randomized depth-first search on a hexagonal grid. The depth-first search algorithm of maze generation is frequently implemented using backtracking. This can be described with a following recursive routine: Given a current cell as a parameter; Mark the current cell as visited; While the current cell has any unvisited neighbour cells

  4. Tree traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_traversal

    L: Recursively traverse the current node's left subtree. R: Recursively traverse the current node's right subtree. The trace of a traversal is called a sequentialisation of the tree. The traversal trace is a list of each visited node. No one sequentialisation according to pre-, in- or post-order describes the underlying tree uniquely.

  5. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

    Standard examples of single recursion include list traversal, such as in a linear search, or computing the factorial function, while standard examples of multiple recursion include tree traversal, such as in a depth-first search. Single recursion is often much more efficient than multiple recursion, and can generally be replaced by an iterative ...

  6. Iterative deepening depth-first search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_deepening_depth...

    a depth-first search starting at A, assuming that the left edges in the shown graph are chosen before right edges, and assuming the search remembers previously-visited nodes and will not repeat them (since this is a small graph), will visit the nodes in the following order: A, B, D, F, E, C, G.

  7. Graph traversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_traversal

    A depth-first search (DFS) is an algorithm for traversing a finite graph. DFS visits the child vertices before visiting the sibling vertices; that is, it traverses the depth of any particular path before exploring its breadth. A stack (often the program's call stack via recursion) is generally used when implementing the algorithm.

  8. Tarjan's strongly connected components algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarjan's_strongly_connected...

    The function strongconnect performs a single depth-first search of the graph, finding all successors from the node v, and reporting all strongly connected components of that subgraph. When each node finishes recursing, if its lowlink is still set to its index, then it is the root node of a strongly connected component, formed by all of the ...

  9. Maze-solving algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze-solving_algorithm

    Robot in a wooden maze. A maze-solving algorithm is an automated method for solving a maze.The random mouse, wall follower, Pledge, and Trémaux's algorithms are designed to be used inside the maze by a traveler with no prior knowledge of the maze, whereas the dead-end filling and shortest path algorithms are designed to be used by a person or computer program that can see the whole maze at once.
