Solution: Longest Cycle in a Graph

Explore how to find the longest cycle length in a directed graph where each node has at most one outgoing edge. Understand the iterative traversal method that tracks visit order to detect cycles and compute their lengths. This lesson helps you implement an efficient O(n) time complexity solution to solve cycle detection and measurement problems in graphs.

Statement

You are given a directed graph with n nodes, labeled from 0 to n - 1. Each node in the graph has at most one outgoing edge.

The graph is described using a 0-indexed integer array edges of length n, where:

  • edges[i] represents a directed edge from node i to node edges[i]. ...
