GRAPH APPLICATION - MINIMUM SPANNING TREE (MST)
The document discusses spanning trees, particularly focusing on minimum spanning trees (MSTs) and two algorithms for their creation: Prim's algorithm and Kruskal's algorithm. It details the procedures for both algorithms, their initialization, and the steps to build the trees while avoiding cycles. Additionally, it highlights applications of MSTs, including cost-effective graph traversal for network layouts.

SPANNING TREE -CREATION Either DFS or BFS can be used to create a spanning tree When DFS is used, the resulting spanning tree is known as a depth first spanning tree When BFS is used, the resulting spanning tree is known as a breadth first spanning tree While adding a non-tree edge into any spanning tree, this will create a cycle 4
