Minimum Spanning Trees
- To understand the concept of spanning trees and the criteria that define a minimum spanning tree (MST) in a weighted graph.
- To explore and apply Kruskal’s and Prim’s algorithms for computing MSTs through step-by-step visualization.
- To interactively construct spanning trees and analyze them for validity, optimality, and connectivity.
- To observe real-world relevance of MSTs in network optimization, such as communication, transportation, and clustering systems.
