(sort edges by weight, add if no cycle):

Unvisited min = F(730). Current = F. Neighbors: D(no), E(no), T(730+90=820 vs 1010 → update T=820). Visited add F.

1. Introduction Aim: To determine the most efficient (shortest) route for a delivery driver in a local suburban network using graph theory, and to compare the effectiveness of Dijkstra’s algorithm against simple visual inspection. graph theory math ia

Destination T reached (820). Stop.

Unvisited min = D(510). Current = D. Neighbors: A(no), B(no), C(510+120=630 vs 530 no), F(510+300=810), T(510+500=1010). Update T tentative = 1010. Visited S,A,B,D. (sort edges by weight, add if no cycle):

Current = S (distance 0). Neighbors: A(200), B(350). Update: A=200, B=350. Visited = S.

| Edge | Weight | Edge | Weight | |------|--------|------|--------| | S–A | 200 | B–C | 180 | | S–B | 350 | C–D | 120 | | A–B | 150 | C–E | 250 | | A–C | 400 | D–F | 300 | | B–D | 220 | E–F | 100 | | B–E | 280 | F–T | 90 | | A–D | 310 | D–T | 500 (direct but long) | Visited add F

Unvisited min = A(200). Current = A. Neighbors: S(200+200 no better), B(200+150=350 vs current 350 tie), C(200+400=600), D(200+310=510). Update: C=600, D=510. Visited S,A.
