if node not in visited:
visited.append(node); stack.extend(reversed(graph[node]))
print(visited)CURRENT STEP

Step 0 of 0
PROGRAM EXPLANATION
Algorithm and explanation
- Initialize the sample values used to search a graph with dfs.
- Process the data step by step using DFS and Graph search.
- Display the result for search a graph with dfs and compare it with the documented sample output.
This example of search a graph with dfs processes the sample values in a controlled iteration. It demonstrates DFS and Graph search and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.

DEBUGGING CHECKLIST
Common mistakes
Check this
For search a graph with dfs, keep the data shape and value types consistent with DFS.
Check this
Keep every dependent statement inside the correct indented Python block.
Check this
Verify the final DFS and Graph search result against the sample before trying new data.
Try it yourself
Practice: Run the program with the sample input, predict its output, and then test one boundary case of your own.
