What is a Breadth First Search? Give a few of its applications...

Answer / Shubhangi Srivastava

Breadth First Search (BFS) is a graph traversal algorithm that explores all the nodes at a given depth level before moving on to the next level. It uses a queue for traversal and is used in applications such as finding the shortest path between two vertices in an unweighted graph, determining the connected components of a graph, or finding the minimum spanning tree using Prim's algorithm.
