Graph

description

The main idea is that we want to represent something in a abstract form using nodes and edges. Nodes are often "things" and Edges are the relations between these things.

A common way to abstract structures is to use a graph. The goal is always to communicate an idea, or to visualize a problem such that the solution becomes apparent.

Nodes

A node is most commonly a "things" like a place or a state for example. These get represented by a circle and some kind of name.

Edges

Edges are the relation between things and get represented as a line between two nodes. These relations can be directional. The directionality is denoted by a arrow at one or both ends of the line.

A example of a uni-directional graph would be a Tree.
