The first discovery of a // vertex gives its shortest number of edges from the source. // // METHOD // Put the source into a FIFO queue and mark its distance zero. Remove vertices in order and // enqueue each undiscovered neighbor with distance one greater. Mark on enqueue so each // vertex enters at most once. // // COMPLEXITY // O(n squared) time with this adjacency matrix and O(n) auxiliary space. An adjacency-list // implementation is O(V+E). // // CONTRACT // graph is a flattened n by n 0/1 adjacency matrix, n >= 1, source and target are valid // vertices. Directed edges are supported. Returns distance or -1. // Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex // counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers. // Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are // preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity. // Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to // prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000 // workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python // uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be // partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory // implementations. // // LANGUAGE DETAILS // C99: checked calloc/free workspace, const input pointers, explicit size_t lengths. Errors // return INT_MIN with errno=EINVAL, ERANGE, or ENOMEM. Check errno before using a result. // Input/output arrays must not alias. No variable-length stack arrays. // // EXAMPLE // Expected return: 2. // Run: gcc -std=c99 -O2 example.c -o example && ./example // Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source // archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes. static int alg_min(int a, int b) { return a < b ? a : b; } static int alg_max(int a, int b) { return a > b ? a : b; } static int alg_checked(int64_t v, int *error) { if (v < INT_MIN || v > INT_MAX) { *error = 1; return 0; } return (int)v; } static int alg_add(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a+b,e); } static int alg_sub(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a-b,e); } static int alg_mul(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a*b,e); } int bfs_distance(const int *graph, size_t graph_length, int n, int source, int target) { int alg_error = 0; int alg_result = INT_MIN; errno = 0; int *distance = NULL; int *queue = NULL; if (graph_length > 1000000 || (graph_length && !graph)) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!(((n >= 0) && (n <= 1000000)))) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!(((int)graph_length == alg_mul(n, n, &alg_error)))) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!(((n >= 1) && (source >= 0) && (source < n)))) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!(((target >= 0) && (target < n)))) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } { int alg_length = n; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_length < 0 || alg_length > 4000000) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } distance = calloc((size_t)(alg_length ? alg_length : 1), sizeof(*distance)); if (!distance) { errno = ENOMEM; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } { int alg_length = n; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_length < 0 || alg_length > 4000000) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } queue = calloc((size_t)(alg_length ? alg_length : 1), sizeof(*queue)); if (!queue) { errno = ENOMEM; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } int v = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } int u = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } int head = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } int tail = 1; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (v < n); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; distance[v] = alg_sub(0, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } v = alg_add(v, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } distance[source] = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } queue[0] = source; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (head < tail); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; u = queue[head]; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } head = alg_add(head, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } v = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (v < n); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; int alg_condition_1 = ((graph[alg_add(alg_mul(u, n, &alg_error), v, &alg_error)] != 0) && (distance[v] == alg_sub(0, 1, &alg_error))); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_condition_1) { distance[v] = alg_add(distance[u], 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } queue[tail] = v; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } tail = alg_add(tail, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } v = alg_add(v, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } } alg_result = distance[target]; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } goto alg_cleanup; alg_cleanup: free(distance); free(queue); return alg_result; } int main(void) { int graph[] = {0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0}; int n = 3; int source = 0; int target = 2; int result = bfs_distance(graph, 9, n, source, target); printf("%d\n", result); if (errno) { perror("algorithm"); return 1; } return 0; } |
