Conjuring on an adjacency matrix
(thanks to Math::MatrixReal), this snippet
finds every couple of nodes (i, j) such that
there's a path from i to j. The matrix $sum is
called transitive closure of the graph $graph.
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Transitive closure of a directed graph
use strict;
use Math::MatrixReal;
my $n = 4; # Matrix' size
my $graph = Math::MatrixReal->new_from_string( <<'MATRIX' );
[ 0 1 0 1 ]
[ 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 1 1 0 0 ]
MATRIX
my $sum = $graph->shadow();
my $p = $graph->shadow();
$p->one();
# "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them..."
# Sum of A^i, for i = 0..n-1 (A is the adjacency matrix of our graph)
foreach (0 .. ($n - 1)) {
$p = $p * $graph;
$sum = $sum + $p;
}
# Finished.
# Now we print every couple (i, j) such that
# there's a path from i to j.
foreach my $i (1..$n) {
foreach my $j (1..$n) {
print "There's a path from $i to $j.\n" if $sum->element( $i,
+$j );
}
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
