Here is a Graph where I need to find the minimum spanning tree of G using Prim's and Kruskal's algorithms.
I found the minimum spanning tree using Prim's algorithm. Here is my attempt.
I am having difficulty in finding the minimum spanning tree using Kruskal's algorithm. I have seen many videos related to Kruskal's graph algorithm but I ended up getting the same graph as Prim's algorithm.
Can anyone please show me how to find the minimum spanning tree of the graph using Kruskal's algorithm?
Prims and Kruskals will always give you the same answer if all the edges of the graph have distinct weights, as there is only a single min-spanning tree that exists. For graph having many edges with same weights, the algorithms could give you a different answer but not always. Depends on the way the nodes are explored in the implementation. This graph can have many different min-spanning trees.
As your graph has all distinct edge weights, you will always get the same answer.
