Graph Data Structure 4. Dijkstra’s Shortest Path Algorithm
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 чер 2024
- This is the fourth in a series of computer science videos about the graph data structure. This is an explanation of Dijkstra’s algorithm for finding the shortest path between one vertex in a graph and another. Indeed, this explains how Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm generates a set of information that includes the shortest paths from a starting vertex and every other vertex in the graph. It also mentions why Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm is an example of a greedy algorithm.
I don't know if you know this, and this is 4 years late, but this is one of the cleanest, easiest to understand video's (conceptually-wise) for Dijkstra's.
I've seen several, but this! This is the best one. :)
Great to hear! :)KD
@@ComputerScienceLessons lol, but i'm listening even now, best explanation. Keep it up
I agree fully. Best !
@@ComputerScienceLessons He's right! It was veryyy easy to understand. Thank you
stunning, clear explanation. Thank you so much!!!
FINALLY SOME CLEAR STUFF. almost crying
jaja...you made my day
Me too!!
said what i wanna say
HAHAHAHAHA
mood
!!!finally a good and simple explanation
oh tears of joy...
may the gods bless you with bugless codes
"May the gods bless you with bug-less codes."
I'm going to use that a lot.
haha epic comment bro
We won't be visiting A, again.
Me: CRIES LOUDLY
A was no fun. :) KD

i laughed hard reading this
This is literally one of the cleanest, simplest, no-nonsense beautiful explanations of an algorithm I have ever watched on UA-cam. Amazing. To-the-point. Crisp. And so easy to understand and digest. THANK YOU.
This has to be the best explanation of Dijkstra's Shortest Path algorithm... Thanks a lot!
The best video on the internet explaining the Dijkstra’s algorithm, thanks a lot sir.
You're welcome :)KD
I signed in just to like this video.
and to comment apparently

Hi FTP
My scenario is for a non-directed graph (you can go backwards and forwards on any edge), so all the nodes can indeed be reached. However, for a directed graph, some nodes may be unreachable from the given start, as you have intimated. Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest paths only to the nodes that can be reached from the starting node. (if there is no path to a node from the start, it's irrelevant). The loop will end when all 'reachable' vertices have been visited. By the way, Dijkstra's algorithm doesn't work if the graph edges have negative weights.
You sir are BY FAR the BEST teacher of algorithms on UA-cam or anywhere else I've seen algorithm lectures. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS! With your well-paced, methodical style you could probably teach anything!!!!
Even 6 years later, this is still the best explanation ever
Extremely clear, extremely well put together visually. Well done, and thank you.
I really appreciate your comment. Thanks.
extremely
I haven't found a better tutorial than this for understanding and computing distances using Dijkstra's algorithm. Thank you so much.
You are most welcome :)KD
man this Dijkstra guy deserved a nobel prize for it
He was a clever chap! :)KD
I must commend the quality and clarity of this video: it is by far the best video I've seen on UA-cam to date on the subject of explaining Dijkstra's Algorithm. There are so many other videos that do not deal with the problem of keep a record of the shortest route sufficiently systematically enough, in my opinion. This video is systematic, showing the use of a table to perform the algorithm very clearly. Instruction of this level is not accidental; my congratulations to those involved in its production and execution. You have done the domain of Computer Science the world of good. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the great comment Mike.
I can't believe how well done this video was made. I appreciate your hard work at a visual representation of this algorithm.
Absolutely the best explanation. Cleared up any and all lingering questions in my mind.
Seriously, I've been looking at so many pseudocodes and incomprehensible python scripts without any clear explanation on how the algorithm actually works. I salute you. This has helped me so much. I can't thank you enough.
Yo are most welcome :)KD
BEST explanation of Dijkstra's algorithm EVER!
I wish I could upvote this more than once. It is honestly a brilliant, clear, and concise explanation
You are very kind. Thanks. :) KD
@@ComputerScienceLessons But really it's awesome video.. the best info in the least possible time.. Thank you so much from India 🥰
The VERY clearest and well-paced explanation by far! Thanks!
You are too kind :)KD
Lovely, this has been the clearest explanation I've seen so far for Dijkstra's algo. Seriously, thank you so much!
Thanks for saying so. You're most welcome :)KD
After spending lots of time on other videos and stuff finally, I have understood "Dijkstra’s" Thanks to this LEGEND.
You are most welcome :)KD
Great explanation! Finally, I understood it. The table really helps to not get lost. Thank you so much!
It's really interesting, how sometimes one thorough example can clear up everything.
I'm watching a bunch of your videos to review for my Algorithms exam. Thanks a bunch for making these!
Thanks for the comment. It's good to hear you're finding them useful. :)
i used to think this "Dijkstra’s Shortest Path Algorithm" is not for me to understand :) , now i can do it even getting from sleep after watching this video , thanks a ton !!!
An entire computer science degree courses embedded in this amazing channel. Thank you. Not all heroes wear a cap.
This is by far the best video I've seen on this algorithm. It is clear and doesn't skip any steps.
Thank you :)KD
The clearest, and most succinct, explanation of Dijkstra's algo I've seen. Thanks!
This 10mins video >>> 45mins video from my lecturer. LEGEND🙏
Thank you!
This is the single best video explaining the algorithm on UA-cam.
Excellent work, Clarity, and explanation at all stages. Thanks, keep up the good work
We are learning about Dijkstra's Shortest Path in my Data Communications course and this video explains the algorithm much more clearly than my professor had attempted to explain in our lecture video / notes. Thank you very much, in just 10 minutes I was able to understand something I was spending 30-60 minutes on. Well done!! :)
I have never seen a video with such clear and step-by-step explanations. Good job here!
I appreciate the comment. Thanks. :) KD
Crying in disbelief 😭😭. Finally some clear explanation. Thank youuuuu
You are very welcome. Glad to help. :) KD
Thanks for your extraordinary explanation. This is literally one of the simplest explanations of an algorithm I have ever watched on UA-cam.
Thank you. You are very welcome:)KD
This is very enlightening. I’ve come up with a similar algorithm myself that uses a simple width-first or depth-first search, but I’ve never thought of that we should first calculated the vertex with the least known distance! Thanks for sharing it.
Don't thank me, thank this guy :)KD
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edsger_W._Dijkstra
Appreciate this video. Watched a number of others about Dijkstra's Algorithm and couldn't understand HOW and at what stage another path is evaluated. It wasn't until I saw the graph and how we can track the changes that it somehow brought the entire algorithm into crystal clear focus. Thanks!
You are most welcome :)KD
If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. Beautifully done. Thank you!
Thank you! This really helped me out with my assignment! Nice accent, clear explanation, and visually pleasing.
Wonderfully explained. The best video i have come across so far on Djikstra's Algorithm.
This is the fourth video I had to watch. Only one that explains clearly, thanks.
By far the best video for explaining this algorithm! Perfect.
D E A D
Accidental!
kinda scary when it turns red lol
haha i saw this instantly, maybe its a sign :/
(ʘᗩʘ')
Me after my Data Structures and Algorithms final exam
This is so far the best explanation I have seen, thank you so much!
Such a clear and coherent explanation. Watched the Craig n Dave video on this previously but this is such a clearer explanation. Understand this now cheers!
Glad you found it useful. There is nevertheless some good stuff on Craig n Dave's channel :)KD
The way you explained the algorithm was just great, thanks a lot for making this video!
Tnx for the feedback :)
Computer Science can you explain bellman ford too
This is the best video on Dijstra's Shortest path algorithm I have viewed on UA-cam. Kudos!
Thank you for including the psuedo-code at the end. Really helped me get an idea of how I should structure my own code!
Glad to help :)KD
This video is a definition of precise and concise explanation. Thank you very much.
Fantastically clear and concise. Makes my revision an absolute dream, I can’t thank you enough. 10/10
Thank you. Delighted to help :)KD
Where have I seen that pic before?
Really appreciate this video. As a network engineer, i have read many book about how SPF works but this one is the best. And i can also develop the code based on this video. One thing I was stuck for a while is when having the directed graph (shorted path), it is a bit tricky to print all the shortest path considering ecmp case.
You explained this so incredibly clearly! It's really not that hard at all! Thank you so much!
Best explanation I've ever seen of this. Thank you so much!
two hours of a boring lecture vs 10mins cool explanation. thanks mate
You're very welcome :)KD
Perfect video! Clear examples, understandable English and ... no profanity.
Glad you liked it. Thanks for the comment. :) KD
I had to watch this video two times in order to grasp the concept. Thank you!!
You are very welcome. I get my students to check their understanding by working through the algorithm with a different graph. :)KD
This is by far the best video I've seen on this subject it made implementation very easy and the explanation is the best I've ever seen so thank you very much!
Thank you, Kevin. Very understandable and clear.
This is the single best and most simple explanation of Dijkstra's algorithm. It saved me multiple times.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for the kind comment
@@ComputerScienceLessons No need!
Thanks for this! As others have said, this is one of the clearest explanations on youtube!
Damn such a nice tutorial. Also you're making stuffs for VB, you're like the dream channel I've been searching.
This is a great video. You have provided a very simple but clear explanation.
Omg.. out of like 10 dijkstra vids i attempted to eatch this is the best
Best video on Dijkstra I've seen so far. Thanks for doing it with so much clarity.
Best explanation I could find. Thanks.
I FINALLY UNDERSTAND THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
This was the most concise and easy to follow video I've managed to find on this algorithm
You are most welcome. I usually ask my students to check their understanding by working through it with a different graph. :)KD
Excellent graphical and verbal explanation, very simple and coherent. Thanks for your video.
Fantastic explanation. Indeed, it's the best, clearest, simplest, and most useful resource by far that I've found after hours of searching. Thanks for making it!
Thank you - and you are most welcome :)KD
This explanation is by far the Best I've seen.. This is crystal clear , thank you very much!
You are very welcome, and thank you :)KD
Hi from Argentina. After watching 4 other videos I can say this is the best explained solution steps I've found so far. Thanks!!
Tnx
This video is your shortest path to learn Dijkstra Algorithm.
🤡 :)KD
I'm a programming lover man who have no computer science degree. I have seen many videos but this is the best and easiest way to explain the algo... Thanks a lot.. want more
Thanks for the comment. Plenty more on the way.
After watching about 5 videos on this algorithm, yours has made it crystal clear. Thank you.
You're very welcome. :)KD
@@ComputerScienceLessons Your A* explanation is also the best I found
I couldn’t have asked for a clearer video, thank you sir.
You're most welcome :)KD
Man this content mind-blowing clear and simple explained, great work
The fact that this explanation of Dijkstra's is way more easily understandable and to-the-point than the one Computerphile has is astounding. Slides ftw
You're too kind. Thanks you. :)KD
@@ComputerScienceLessons I thank you, recently passed my discrete maths exam :)
You are the best on explaining... Thanks a lot!
I am just captivated by the appealing spoken English
Thank you :)KD
Thanks James May. This was a great episode of Top Gear
Very well explained! Best video so far on this algorithm. Thanks a ton.
This video is a game changer. Understood it in one shot. Brilliant!
Thank you :)KD
So easy to follow. Best video I’ve seen on this algorithm
Best video on Dijkstra's by a considerable margin. Subbed.
mannnn, i've been trying to find the missing link with this stuff and your video finally shined some light on the subject!
You know this is the best illustration and guideline for implementing it on youtube.
Thanks :) KD
This is the best explanation of Dijkstra's algorithm I have seen!! I especially like the last summary part.
Thank you. Glad to help :)KD
I had closed the tab after watching video. Just remembered and came back to give a like. Great video
Thanks for coming back. Much appreciated. :)KD
great video ... you really have the spirit of a teacher ... thanks for making this one.
Very clear explanation. Well done!
Tnx Chris
thank you I was really struggling implementing this algorithm in real coordinates, i realized coordinates are like grid/trees if you zoom it, and i could apply your ideas and explanation to find the shortest path available in a set of xyz 'real' coordinates! awesome.
Finally, an example that makes sense, wonderful job!
Glad to help :)KD
Really good show of the algorithm. thanks a lot.
Awesome video ! This made me clear how to simplify and program the Seam algorithm!
Thanks to your clear explanations, I won't be visiting this video again.
Maybe just once more before the finals.
I hope you will be visiting 'A' :)KD
Thank you for this brilliant explanation!
When I was doing MCA noone explain us in such a simple way...... Now it's so easy after this video... thanks for your kind information....
You are very welcome. It's a tricky topic. :)KD
Thank you very much! I have been trying understand this algorithm for 5 hours and I finally got it now "thanks to you"!
You're most welcome :)KD
You've just earned yourself a new subscription champ! Great video! I love it!
Thank you and you are most welcome :)
