Merry Christmas Everyone!
A problem from Div2 (237) C. Restore Graph asks to construct a graph when distances from a vertex are given.
The solutions and editorial to this problem indicate that we should be searching for nodes that are at dist[u] + 1
for a given node u and there should at least be one such node. But if we have distances = [0, 1, 4]
, then a tree like this 1-(1)->2-(3)->3
also satisfies the conditions in the question and there is no node at a distance of 2
from 1
. Can anyone please help he understand what am I missing here?
Thanks!
