1. Introduction:

DataViz provides an intuitive way to understand complex graph algorithms through visualization.

2. Getting Started:

Access the algorithm by selecting it from the homepage. You'll see a graph visualization canvas and a set of controls.

3. Exploring the Graph:

Nodes are represented as circles, and edges between nodes are the connections.
To add a node, click the "Add Node" button.
To delete a node, select it, and click the "Delete Node" button.
To add an edge, provide the Edge Weight in the input field and click the "Add Edge" button.
To delete an edge, select it, and click the "Delete Edge" button.

4. Running Algorithm:

Configure the graph as desired (add nodes and edges).
Adjust the animation speed using the slider.
Click the "Start" button.
The visualization will show the process step by step, highlighting the current node and explanation beside.

5. Interacting with the Controls:

"Toggle Physics" button handles the physics simulation, moving the nodes and edges to show them clearly.
"Adjust Network" optimizes the graph layout.
"Reset" button clears the visualization.

6. Resetting the Visualization:

Click the "Reset" button to clear the visualization and start over.

7. Tips and Best Practices:

Start by adding nodes and edges to create a custom graph.
Experiment with different graph structures to see how the algorithm behaves.
Adjust the animation speed to your preference.
Use the "Toggle Physics" and "Adjust Network" buttons for a better view.

8. Conclusion:

DataViz is a valuable tool for learning and experimenting with this essential graph algorithm. Explore and gain insights into the world of graphs through visualization.
