How does the Ford-Fulkerson algorithm find the maximum flow in a network?
- By employing the depth-first search (DFS) algorithm.
- By iteratively augmenting the flow along augmenting paths.
- By sorting the edges based on their weights and selecting the maximum.
- By using the breadth-first search (BFS) algorithm.
The Ford-Fulkerson algorithm finds the maximum flow in a network by iteratively augmenting the flow along augmenting paths. It repeatedly selects a path from the source to the sink and increases the flow along that path until no more augmenting paths can be found.
