Welcome to the Graph-Coding-Minutes repository! This repository contains problems taken from the course "Graph Theory Algorithms for Competitive Programming" by Prateek Narang (Coding Minutes). Each problem comes with its corresponding solution in the form of code files (As I submitted it in course) and question statements provided as PNG files. Additionally, if there are similar or exact problems available online, their links are provided in the que-link.txt file.
If you're looking to follow this repository and maximize your learning, consider covering the following topics:

Once you've solved the problems for a section or a set of sections, you can further enhance your skills by:
- to improve your understanding of problems, like how to identify what concept you need to use or if it is a graph problem. Competitive programming is the best thing, so start with Codeforces problems from rating 1400 and add filters by tags. My recommendation to visit ACDLadders and solve selected problems from ACodeDaily community.
- To grind Codeforces D problems visit AskSenior and solve relevent problems.
- Contributing more resources like Editorial links, Blogs etc. for this Repository.
- For CSES problem solutions, I already have a repository. You can check it out, and for better solutions or problems not solved by me, you can refer to Abhishek Saini's Repository.
Happy Coding! 🚀 PS: If this repository was helpful to you, please give it a star. XD
