so i was reading <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Dijkstra's_algorithm">wiki</a> on dijkstra's algorithm for finding shortest path. i dont think article specifically define the requirements of the graph in order to make the algorithm working properly.(unless i missed something?)
for instance, in the graph below, the shortest path from 1to1 should be 1>7>2>1. however, by following dijkstra's, you would get 1>4>9>1 because compared to 7, 4 is smallest among all direct vertices. 1 / \ 2 9 | | 7 4 \ / 1 anyone knows the requirements, especially the ration of #of edges to #of vertices? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Algorithm Geeks" group.
