to an edge e is denoted by w(e). The weights associated with the edges may either be distances or
time needed to cover the distances. The problem is to find the minimum path or minimum time
or minimum cost to reach the destination.
The graph shown in Fig. 10.5(b) is an example of a weighted graph connecting manufacturing
unit P to the market M and the weights represent the distances.
