Construct the shortest path tree edge by edge; at each step adding one new edge, corresponding to construction of shortest path to the current new vertex. 6 The Rough Idea of Dijkstra’s Algorithm Maintain an estimate *of the length
Dijkstra's algorithm - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra's_algorithmDijkstra's algorithm is an algorithm for finding the shortest paths between nodes in a graph, which may represent, for example, road networks. It was conceived by computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1956 and published three years later. The algorithm exists in many variants. Dijkstra's original algorithm found the shortest path between two given nodes, but a more common variant fixes a single node as the "source" node a…
