The document presents information about Dijkstra's algorithm, a solution to the single-source shortest path problem in graph theory. It works on both directed and undirected graphs as long as all edge weights are nonnegative. The algorithm uses a priority queue to iteratively find the shortest path from a source vertex to all other vertices. Pseudocode is provided to illustrate the step-by-step process. An animated example further demonstrates how Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest paths between vertices in a graph. Applications of the algorithm include traffic information systems and routing systems.
