Talk:Stoer–Wagner algorithm

Latest comment: 5 years ago by Chinasaur in topic Missing example

This article contains two sample implementations. The first one is C++, contains a reference, and appears to work.

I can't get the second one to work. First, I can't tell for sure what language it is. It mostly looks like C, but the code uses C++ reference syntax in one place:

int contract( int &s, int &t )

Even after changing the references to pointers, I couldn't get a sensible answer.

Finally, will memset(bin, false, sizeof(bin)); clear the entire array, or is

   memset(bin, false, sizeof(bool)*maxn);

correct?

Single Phase Explanation

edit

It seems that the MinimumCutPhase is missing a couple of sentences. Nowhere is it said in text how to actually pick s, t in the phase mincut.

"So, in a single phase, a pair of vertices s and t , and a min s-t cut C is determined" — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheZuza777 (talkcontribs) 04:12, 21 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Missing example

edit

There's an example given in the text that seems to refer to a figure that no longer exists. It looks like there was a file called Stoer-wagner_algorithm.png that has been removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.221.141.99 (talk) 17:33, 11 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

The example refers to the figures in the original paper; I added a reference to that but perhaps the whole section should be reworked / removed. Chinasaur (talk) 19:33, 17 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
