Difference between BFS and DFS

  Difference between BFS and DFS What is BFS (Breadth-First Search)? The vertex-based method known as BFS, or breadth-first search, locates the shortest path in a graph. It makes use of a queue data structure with first in, first out ordering. In BFS, just one vertex is chosen at a time to be visited, tagged, and then its neighboring vertex(es) are visited and queued. DFS is faster than it. Example: Let's say node 0 is the root node. As a result, node 0 would be the starting point for the traversal. Node 0 is displayed and designated as a visited node after it has been taken out of the queue. The neighboring nodes of node 0 would be added in a queue as indicated below whenever node 0 is withdrawn from the queue: Node 1 will now be eliminated from the queue, printed, and designated as a visited node. All of node 1's neighboring nodes will be added to a queue whenever node 1 is removed from it. Nodes 0, 3, 2, 6, and 5 are the nodes that are close to node 1. However, we must only ...
