Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In which real-world application is Dijkstra's algorithm commonly used?
  • Step 1: Understand what Dijkstra's algorithm does. It finds the shortest path between two points.
  • Step 2: Think about where you need to find the shortest path in real life. One common place is when using a GPS.
  • Step 3: Recognize that GPS navigation systems help you get from one location to another.
  • Step 4: Realize that these systems use Dijkstra's algorithm to calculate the quickest route to your destination.
