directed acyclic graphs (dags)
Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are graph-like structures that consist of a set of vertices or nodes connected by directed edges, where the edges have a specific directionality and do not form cycles or loops. This means that it is not possible to travel in a continuous loop starting from a node and returning to the same node. DAGs are commonly used in various fields, including computer science, mathematics, and data analysis, to represent and analyze relationships or dependencies between different elements or tasks.
