If you can copy a network
-
without lifting your pen off the paper
-
without drawing any line twice
then it is traversable.
Decide which of these diagrams are traversable.
If you end up where you started when you draw a traversable diagram it is called a traversing circuit .
If you don't end up where you started when you draw a traversable diagram it is called a traversing path.
Can you give a set of criteria for determining whether a diagram is traversable by a path or a circuit or neither?
