From 0 to 1 Data Structures & Algorithms in Java - Introduction To Shortest Path In An Unweighted Graph - The Distance T

The video tutorial introduces shortest path algorithms, focusing on finding the shortest path between two vertices in a graph by traversing the fewest number of edges. It explains the problem statement, sets up a graph, and analyzes example paths to determine the shortest path. The concept of distance in graphs is discussed, followed by an introduction to the distance table and its relation to the BFS algorithm. The tutorial concludes with a detailed guide on filling the distance table using a specific path example.
