Study Notes

Graph Traversal Techniques

  • There are two types of graph traversal techniques: Breadth-First Search (BFS) and Depth-First Search (DFS).

Breadth-First Search (BFS)

  • A queue data structure is used for BFS traversal.
  • The graph can be started from any node in BFS traversal.
  • In BFS traversal, vertices at the present depth level are traversed first, before moving on to vertices at the next depth level.

Depth-First Search (DFS)

  • DFS stands for Depth-First Search in graph traversal.
