Direct Known Subclasses:

public class DepthFirstIterator
extends BreadthFirstIterator

Iterates over the nodes of a graph in a Depth First Search pattern starting from a specified node. The following illustrates the iteration order.



The iteration operates by maintaning a node queue of active nodes. An active node is a node that will returned at a later stage of the i teration. The node queue for a Depth First iteration is implemented as a Last In First Out queue (a Stack). A node is placed in the the node queue if it has not been visited, and it is adjacent to a a node that has been visited. The node queue intially contains only the source node of the traversal.
