Let <math>G=(V,A)</math> be a [[Basic graph definitions|directed graph]]. Consider the following equivalence relation on the nodes: <math>v\in V</math> and <math>w\in V</math> are equivalent if, and only if, there is a path fmo <math>v</math> to <math>w</math> and a path from <math>w</math> to <math>v</math> in <math>G</math>. The equivalence classes are called the '''strongly connected components (SCC)''' of <math>G</math>.

Basic definitions

  1. Basic graph definitions

Input

A directed graph [math]\displaystyle{ G=(V,A) }[/math].

Output

A set of sets of nodes. Each set of nodes contains exactly the nodes of one SCC. The correspondence between the SCC and these sets of nodes is one-to-one.
