5 Questions
What does a topological sort help to determine?
The order of precedence in a graph
In which type of graph is topological sort commonly used?
Directed acyclic graph (DAG)
Why can't we sort the vertices of a cyclic graph using topological sort?
Because topological sort cannot handle cyclic dependencies
What is a characteristic of the vertices in a graph that allows topological sorting to be possible?
The graph has no cycles
If a graph has parallel (multiple) edges between vertices, can we perform a topological sort on that graph?
No, topological sort cannot handle parallel edges
Test your knowledge on topological sorting and graph vertices. Answer questions about the usage of topological sort, characteristics of vertices that allow for sorting, and limitations when dealing with cyclic graphs.
