Transcribed Image Text:**Dijkstra's Algorithm to Find the Shortest Path**
**Problem Statement:**
Use Dijkstra's algorithm to determine the shortest path length between vertices \( a \) and \( z \). Show each step of the calculations.
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram is a graph of vertices and weighted edges. The vertices, labeled \( a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, \) and \( z \), are connected as follows:
- \( a \) to \( b \) with a weight of 4
- \( a \) to \( c \) with a weight of 3
- \( b \) to \( d \) with a weight of 5
- \( b \) to \( e \) with a weight of 2
- \( c \) to \( d \) with a weight of 3
- \( c \) to \( g \) with a weight of 6
- \( d \) to \( e \) with a weight of 1
- \( d \) to \( f \) with a weight of 9
- \( d \) to \( g \) with a weight of 5
- \( e \) to \( f \) with a weight of 3
- \( f \) to \( z \) with a weight of 4
- \( g \) to \( i \) with a weight of 8
- \( h \) to \( i \) with a weight of 3
- \( i \) to \( z \) with a weight of 5
**Note:** Write the vertex set \( S \) and the current shortest path at each step.
**Solution Steps:**
1. **Initialization:**
- Start at vertex \( a \).
- Set \(\text{distance}(a) = 0\) and all other vertices to infinity.
- Current vertex set \( S = \{a\} \).
2. **Explore neighbors of \( a \):**
- Update distances: \(\text{distance}(b) = 4\), \(\text{distance}(c) = 3\).
- Choose the vertex with the smallest distance not in \( S \), which is \( c \).
3. **Add \( c \) to \( S \) and explore neighbors:**
- Current
