Depth First Search Algorithm : A standard DFS implementation puts each vertex of the graph into one of two categories:
- Visited
- Not Visited
The purpose of the algorithm is to mark each vertex as visited while avoiding cycles.
The DFS algorithm works as follows:
- Start by putting any one of the graph's vertices on top of a stack.
- Take the top item of the stack and add it to the visited list.
- Create a list of that vertex's adjacent nodes. Add the ones which aren't in the visited list to the top of the stack.
- Keep repeating steps 2 and 3 until the stack is empty.
