lectures prime path (all 4)

2:12pm Wed 11th Sep, Arran S.

Hi Kazi,

My understanding is prime path is also a simple path (no repeated nodes)

That's not correct – that's not what the definition of "simple path" is. I recommend checking the lecture slides again to see what the definition of a simple path is.

Cheers

Arran

I have a confusion from the question 3 of First Semester Examinations 2020. I have quoted the question below.

Q3: "List at least four prime paths through the state diagram, using the letter labels. At least one prime path should pass include node D twice. Explain what makes them prime paths."

My understanding is prime path is also a simple path (no repeated nodes) and it does not appear as a proper subpath of any other simple path. My confusion - if a path includes a node twice (as asked in the question), will it be a prime path? If yes I would like to know under which condition it can be. Could you please clear my confusion or share a reference that explains this concept?
