Talk:Dijkstra's algorithm: Difference between revisions

Line 16:
 
I think there may be a bug: The java one uses a TreeSet to maintain the unvisited set - but it is doing equality comparisons with compareTo, which is looking at the distance and not the identity of the node. So if two distinct nodes happen to have the same dist value at the same time, then either one could get removed from the unvisited set.
 
There are several bugs in the Java realization of this algorithm
 
 
For example for the Graph
 
private static final Graph.Edge[] GRAPH = {
new Graph.Edge("17", "1", 20),
new Graph.Edge("1", "17", 20),
new Graph.Edge("1", "7", 2),
new Graph.Edge("7", "14", 15),
new Graph.Edge("1", "3", 5),
new Graph.Edge("3", "14", 2),
new Graph.Edge("1 ", "2", 5),
 
};
 
private static final String START = "17";
private static final String END = "14";
 
The path from the vertex "17" to "14" will be
 
17 -> 1 -> 7 -> 14 with summary distance 37
while it must me
 
17 -> 1 -> 3 -> 14 with summary distance 27
 
 
please see the fixed version of this algorithm below

the code quality still is not the best but at list the functionality now is correct
