What is a graph

A graph is an abstract data structure. It can be used to solve routine problems.

Vertices connected by an edge (see picture) are called Neighbours.

The degree of a vertex is how many things are connected to it, in the picture, there would be 2.

Edges can also be called connectors and vertex can also be called nodes or entries.
