hi everyone ,
what i propose for this very problem , if i understand it correctly , is to use recursion with memoization ...
let us assume that we want to know the number of paths in a directed graph between 2 of its vertices u and v ...
what we do is write this simple memoization :
# define num
dijkra's algorithms gives the shortest path between two nodes, but you
can enumerate all paths using that method. when adding a new node you
have to check whether there is a way from the last ( not the closest )
node to new added one, if so, then print out the answer, till the last
node is added t
DFS will give only one path. You need all paths .. so it would be
something like this :
end_node
path_so_far
FindPaths ( curr_node ) {
if ( curr_node = = end_node ) {
print path_so_far;
return;
}
for each node "new_node" reachable from curr_node {
add new_node to path_
How about a DFS? I guess this is Dhyanesh meant by a recursive solution.On 5/9/06, akshay ranjan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem does not ask for the *shortest* path. He wants to
enumerate *all* possible paths between two nodes.

Well if you have a graph of 'n' nodes ... then the number of paths can
be n! . And you would need that much time to enumerate all of them.
You can write a recursive algo to do this job.
