Calculus and Statistics Methods
Depth-first search (DFS) is an algorithm for traversing or searching through graph data structures by exploring as far as possible along each branch before backtracking. This method allows for the exploration of nodes in a deep manner, which can be particularly useful for pathfinding and solving puzzles. DFS is commonly implemented using a stack data structure, either explicitly or via recursion, making it efficient in terms of space when navigating large graphs.
congrats on reading the definition of depth-first search. now let's actually learn it.
