5.1 Graph Traversals - BFS & DFS -Breadth First Search and Depth First Search

[@wirito]

Why do I like professor Abdul’s videos: 1) He speaks clear English. 2) Articulate, makes pauses. 3) Straight to the point. No unnecessary fillers. 4) More importantly, excellent explanations. Thank you sir!

[@yosifsharrak7585]

This is super helpful thank you!! Just a clarification, I believe there is a mistake on 13:56. When going from 3 to 2, add 3 back to the stack so the stack should be [1,4,3]. Then at 15:25, go back to 3 and then to 4. I got stuck here a bit, so I hope this helps someone.
