Definitions
A path is a sequence of nodes such that for all consecutive nodes, there exist an edge
Let there be a weight assigned to each edge.
Single Source Shortest Path (SSSP)
Given a graph , source node , outupt the shortest path from the source
Variants
* Single destination problem: shortest path from all nodes to a single destination * Single pair problem: Shortest path between input pair
