Is there a typo in the "Invariant hyphothesis" sentence?
It says: "This assumption is only considered if a path not exists," but should it be "This assumption is only considered if a path exists," ?
Description section issues
The section currently titled 'description' reads more like a tutorial on how to run Dijkstra by hand. It's full of second person and even tells you to use a pencil and follow along. Aside from that, it's just a complete restatement of the 'Algorithm' section, except in the context of city roads, jargon removed. It is of course necessary to provide an explanation that can be understood by the general reader, but this is redundant and not the way to do it. IntGrah (talk) 22:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
