Understanding Prim's Algorithm: A Visual Guide to Minimum Spanning Trees

In this video, we’ll give you a quick and clear introduction to a classic algorithm in graph theory — Prim’s Algorithm. It’s used to build a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST), which helps connect multiple nodes (like cities) at the lowest possible cost. We walk through each step of the algorithm using a real example graph, explain the key data structures involved, and show how to implement it in Python. We also break down its time complexity. Perfect for beginners who want to understand the basics of graph theory and how it’s applied in real-world scenarios. #datastructures #algorithm #minimumspanningtree #primalgods #python #motioncanvas #heap
