What is a Graph?

In this video we cover all of the basics about graphs. We start be defining the different parts of a graph, and then jump into a real world example where we translate a map with cities and highways into a graph. Finally, we discuss some of the common attributes you might find on a graph, such as cost, capacity, directional edges, and even cycles, and relate these all to our graph derived from a map of cities and highways.

Let's Learn Algorithms: Sorting a Custom User Type with Bubble Sort

Learn how to sort a list with a custom type when you want to use a fallback search criteria. Eg sort by last name, then first name if those match.

Let's Learn Algorithms: Binary Searching for Case Insensitive Strings

Learn to implement a binary search where you can find strings regardless of their case when searching in a previously sorted list of strings.

Let's Learn Algorithms: Implementing Binary Search

This tutorial demonstrates how to implement an iterative (without recursion) binary search that can find a number in a sorted list of numbers using Golang.

Let's Learn Algorithms: An Introduction to Binary Search

This tutorial explains how binary search, works and then describes how it would be used to find a number in a sorted list with visual examples.

Let's Learn Algorithms: Sorting a list of strings in alphabetical order with bubble sort

This article demonstrates how to code a bubble sort that sorts a list of strings in a case insensitive manner using Go.
