Description please. Suppose the economies of the world use a set of currencies C1, . . . , Cn; think of these as dollars, pounds, Bitcoin, etc. Your bank allows you to trade each currency Ci for any other currency Cj, and finds some way to charge you for this service. Suppose that for each ordered pair of currencies (Ci, Cj ), the bank charges a flat fee of fij > 0 dollars to exchange Ci for Cj (regardless of the quantity of currency being exchanged). Describe an algorithm which, given a starting currency Cs, a target currency Ct, and a list of fees fij for all i, j ∈ {1, . . . , n}, computes the cheapest way (that is, incurring the least in fees) to exchange all of our currency in Cs into currency Ct. Also, justify the its runtime. [We are expecting a description of the algorithm, as well as a brief justification of its runtime.]
