Topological Sorting

A topological sort takes a directed acyclic graph and produces a linear ordering of its vertices such that if the graph contains an edge from vertex v to vertex w, then v comes before w in the ordering. The algorithm performs a depth-first search on the graph to compute finish times for each vertex, then returns the vertices in decreasing order of finish time as the result of the topological sort.

Topological Sorting

A topological sort takes a directed acyclic graph and produces a linear ordering of all its vertices such that if the graph
G contains an edge (v, w) then the vertex v comes before vertex w in the ordering.

The algorithm is as follows:

i. Call DFS (G) for a graph G. Compute finish times for each one of the vertices.
ii. Store the vertices in a list in the decreasing order of their finish times.
iii. Return the ordered list as the result of the topological sort.
