Problem 3) Yet another one: Topological Sort! [25 pts.]
In this question, you are asked to topologically sort the vertices in the directed
acyclic graph (DAG) given on the left below. We also show the adjacency list
representation of this DAG on the right below. You should note that the vertices
adjacent to a particular vertex are stored in increasing order in this adjacency list.
Please follow the instructions carefully for questions 3.1 and 3.2.
3.1. Find a topological ordering by using a queue data structure in the linear time
(i.e.O(|V|+|E|)) algorithm discussed in class. Make sure to examine the vertices
adjacent to a node in the order they appear on the corresponding singly linked lists.
Note that since you need to use a queue data structure, you should process the
vertices with in-degree zero in a FIFO (First-In First-Out) order. (15 pts.)
3.2. Find a topological ordering by using a stack data structure instead of a queue
this time. Make sure to examine the vertices adjacent to a node in the order they
appear on the corresponding singly linked lists. Note again that since you need to use
a stack data structure, you should process the vertices with in-degree zero in a LIFO
(Last-In First-Out) order. (10 pts.)
