What are the two key components required for implementing the A* search algorithm?
- Depth-first search
- Greedy approach and dynamic programming
- Heuristic function and cost function
- Priority queue and adjacency matrix
The two key components required for implementing the A* search algorithm are the heuristic function (which estimates the cost from the current state to the goal) and the cost function (which represents the actual cost from the start state to the current state).
