[MO412] Quizz Question 2


About Depth First Search (DFS) and topological sorting, assign true or false to the following statements:

I) The visited node order of the following graph and adjacency list, starting with s, is s a c e b d
II) While running a DFS on a directed graph, if from vertex u we visit a finished vertex v, then the edge (u, v) is a cross-edge

III) if a topological sort exists for the vertices in a directed graph, then a DFS  on the graph will produce no back edges 

IV) A DFS in a directed graph always produces the same number of tree edges 

V) Suppose we perform a DFS on a directed graph G. If we remove all the back edges found, the resulting graph is acyclic 

a) I, II, III
b) II, III, V
c) I, III, IV, V
d) I, III, V
e) All statements are true
