Very underrated. Your explanations are amazing!

I liked how you submitted your single source BFS code to prove that it won’t work.

Thanks! I am glad you are following the series.

Here are the updates:

I solved another CSES problem: Lava Flow and Multisource BFS - YouTube

I made an introductory video 00 to make things even simpler - YouTube

I am reuploading the solution to the first problem, for greater audio clarity and better explanation/presentation - YouTube

Today I will try and share Dijkstra theory while solving the next CSES problem.

Language dependent or independent videos ?

I explain concepts in English. But my implementation is in C++, I explain every critical aspect of code though. Just check it out, you’ll like it.

This video series is really helpful! I am really excited about this series and will keep posting updates to support you. I just finished the first two videos. Nice explanation of BFS and DFS on the grid.

Thanks a lot for you effort and hard work. It is really helpful for the coding comminity.

Thank you guys. Please subscribe! Its a humble request . Will post more videos soon.

Hey please try to make a few more videos on Dijkstra algo, with some interesting problems

Do give feedback, please!

:slight_smile:

I will be adding Bellman-Ford and solving more problems starting tomorrow.

Please keep following this series to improve your understanding of graph theory.

Hey, can you help me with this problem?

Check out my DFS

See what i did there? I created a global vector idx and did the following to track the edge being currently explored.

When I come back, I don’t start checking ALL neighbours of vertex ‘u’. I simply continue from where I left. Hope that makes sense?

If we don’t take care of this, we will search ALL edges every time in the following case. I am calling this graph a flower-with-petal graph. Only seven petals in this graph, but imagine what happens if there are 10^5 petals (with O(N^2) complexity)

If it doesn’t I am not going to type out more here. I try to make a Eulerian Circuit video on priority and explain this aspect clearly.

Watch out for this video series: - YouTube

CSES Problem Set

Round trip ii.

  • Time limit: 1.00 s
  • Memory limit: 512 MB

Byteland has n cities and m flight connections. Your task is to design a round trip that begins in a city, goes through one or more other cities, and finally returns to the starting city. Every intermediate city on the route has to be distinct.

The first input line has two integers n and m : the number of cities and flights. The cities are numbered 1,2,\dots,n .

Then, there are m lines describing the flights. Each line has two integers a and b : there is a flight connection from city a to city b . All connections are one-way flights from a city to another city.

First print an integer k : the number of cities on the route. Then print k cities in the order they will be visited. You can print any valid solution.

If there are no solutions, print "IMPOSSIBLE".

Constraints

  • 1 \le n \le 10^5
  • 1 \le m \le 2 \cdot 10^5
  • 1 \le a,b \le n

Round Trip (CSES)

Problem link: https://cses.fi/problemset/task/1669

Problem statement: Byteland has n cities and m roads between them. Your task is to design a round trip that begins in a city, goes through two or more other cities, and finally returns to the starting city. Every intermediate city on the route has to be distinct.

The first input line has two integers n and m : the number of cities and roads. The cities are numbered 1,2,…,n. Then, there are m lines describing the roads. Each line has two integers a and b : there is a road between those cities. Every road is between two different cities, and there is at most one road between any two cities.

First print an integer k: the number of cities on the route. Then print k cities in the order they will be visited. You can print any valid solution. If there are no solutions, print “IMPOSSIBLE”.

In the given input format the graph will look like

round trip cses usaco

Here we need to find out the cycle in the graph if the cycle is not exit then we need to return word IMPOSSIBLE and if there is cycle we need to print the length of the cycle and also print the cycle

So First We need to find out the cycle , but how?? To find cycle we need to traverse graph so lets take it as dfs and now while traversing if the upcomming child is visited then there are only two things that’s possible one is it can be a parent , but if it is not a parent then it will be aldready visted then this makes it as a cycle

If you do not know how to find out whether there is cycle print cycle you can go learn from this following blog Cycle_Detection_in_Graphs and try to solve the both practise problems

Cses nested ranges count.

I am trying to solve this problem from CSES problem set and I’ve not been able to come up even with a half decent idea after spending around 2 hours on it.

I tried to google and read AC’ed solutions but can’t comprehend the approach taken.

Can someone just describe their approach?

let a range be called (start, end)

if we sort the ranges by their start , we can find the number of ranges that contain x by querying the number of ranges y that satisfy y.start \leq x.start and y.end \geq x.end . This fits our situation because if we sort the ranges, then we guarantee that y.start \leq x.start must be true. Thus, we can use a DS like a Binary indexed tree to query the number of ranges that satisfy y.end >= x.end .

counting the number of ranges that x contain is similar.

Thanks a lot for replying.

What does the Binary Indexed Tree store in this case? IIRC, I can query a BIT to get sum of elements in a subarray defined by indexs i and j or update and element at index i , both these operation can be done in \mathcal{O(\log n)} using BIT.

The code that you provided what is BIT storing?

BIT stores the # of ranges

count[x] = BIT.query(x.end, INF) is querying the number of ranges before x that satisfy y.end>=x.end .

BIT.add(x.end, 1); increments that counter for x

Thanks a lot. I got the gist of your approach finally but I ended up solving it using pbds ordered set(a slight modification to use it as ordered multiset)

  1. Topological Sort · USACO Guide

    A topological sort of a directed acyclic graph is a linear ordering of its vertices such that for every directed edge u\to v u → v from vertex u u to vertex v v, u u comes before v v in the ordering. There are two common ways to topologically sort, one involving DFS and the other involving BFS. Resources. CSA. Topological Sorting.
