In this video, we solve the Number of Provinces problem using DFS and BFS and understand it in a simple and easy way.
The key idea is to identify how many connected components are present in the graph. Every connected component represents one province.
What you'll learn:
What is the Number of Provinces problem?
How provinces are represented using an adjacency matrix
Understanding connected components
Solving the problem using DFS
Solving the problem using BFS
How the visited array works
Step-by-step example
Python, Java & C++ implementations
DFS vs BFS approach
Time and space complexity
Complexity
Time: O(N²)
Space: O(N)
This is a very important problem for understanding Graph Traversal, Connected Components, DFS, and BFS and is commonly asked in coding interviews.
