First of all, lets just compute the lengths of the shortest paths rst, and afterwards we can use these lengths to easily reconstruct the paths themselves. In both contexts it refers to simplifying a complicated problem by breaking it down into simpler subproblems in a recursive manner. Is it the number of paths taken, the sum of all the weights of the paths taken, or is it an array of all the weights of the paths taken.
A single execution of the algorithm will find the lengths summed weights of the shortest paths between all pair of vertices. In this project a synthesis of such problems is presented. This formula indicates that the best distance to v is either the previously known distance to v, or the result of going from s to some vertex u and then directly from u to v.
