Spanning Tree

How to make a spanning tree Start by labeling the starting point with a 0 and darkening it in. Every point that is adjacent to this darkened in point label with a 1. Darken the edge that connects a 0 with a 1. Make sure not to make a cycle. Repeat these steps increasing the counter by 1 each time. Be carful to not make cycles

Kruskal’s Minimum Spanning Tree

To Do Kruskal Darken in the smallest edge and its points. Brake ties arbitrarily. Continue darkening the smallest value making sure not to form a cycle. When you have a connected graph and all the points darkened in you are done.

Prim’s Minimum Spanning Tree

To do Prim Darken in the smallest edge and its points From now on darken in the smallest edge that connect a darkened in point to a non-darkened in point.(The edges are always adjacent to each other) When all the points are darkened in you are done.
