Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++

Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++ is a DSA topic. In plain words you use it for bus routes in a city map. Don’t start with a slogan — start with that picture.

Smallest example: BFS queue / DFS stack. Type it, run it, and say what you see. If you can do that from memory, you know Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++.

From the example next to this theory: Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++ — graphs are often stored as adjacency lists: vertex → list of (neighbor, weight).

Trap — no visited set → infinite loop. Fix that before you talk about advanced DSA.

Viva — what is Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++? Then show BFS queue / DFS stack. Then name the trap.

Exam tip

What is Detect cycle in an undirected graph in C++? Show this: BFS queue / DFS stack. Trap: no visited set → infinite loop.

Example

# adjacency list
graph = {
    "A": [("B", 2), ("C", 5)],
    "B": [("A", 2), ("C", 1)],
    "C": [("A", 5), ("B", 1)],
}
for u, edges in graph.items():
    print(u, "->", edges)
