Problem Statement:
There are n servers numbered from 0 to n - 1, connected by undirected server-to-server connections. Each connection is represented by connections[i] = [ai, bi], indicating a connection between servers ai and bi. Every server can reach other servers either directly or indirectly through the network.
A critical connection is defined as a connection that, if removed, will cause some servers to become unreachable from others. The task is to find and return all such critical connections in any order.
Why This Problem?
This problem is a great addition to DSA practice for the following reasons:
It involves graph theory concepts, specifically bridges in a graph, which are useful in understanding critical points in a network.
It provides practice in applying DFS (Depth-First Search) algorithms and Tarjan's algorithm for bridge-finding.
It is an interesting and practical problem related to real-world scenarios like network resilience and reliability.
