Detailed explanation-1: -Dijkstra) solves the problem of finding the shortest path from a point in a graph (the source) to a destination. It turns out that one can find the shortest paths from a given source to all points in a graph in the same time, hence this problem is sometimes called the single-source shortest paths problem.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dijkstra’s Algorithm was conceived by computer scientist Edsger W. Dijkstra in 1956. It is a single source shortest paths algorithm. It means that it finds the shortest paths from a single source vertex to all other vertices in a graph.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem consists of finding the shortest paths between a given vertex v and all other vertices in the graph. Algorithms such as Breadth-First-Search (BFS) for unweighted graphs or Dijkstra [1] solve this problem.
Detailed explanation-4: -The single source shortest path algorithm (for arbitrary weight positive or negative) is also known Bellman-Ford algorithm is used to find minimum distance from source vertex to any other vertex.
Detailed explanation-5: -Dijkstra’s algorithm makes use of weights of the edges for finding the path that minimizes the total distance (weight) among the source node and all other nodes. This algorithm is also known as the single-source shortest path algorithm.
