Please consider the network above. With the indicated link costs, use Dijkstra’s shortest-path algorithm to compute the shortest path from u to all other network nodes. Show how the algorithm works by computing a table like the following (this is an example; the link costs and paths are not the same as in the above drawing, do not copy them from this table): To describe your results, please use the following format, using the following: A semi-colon “;” to separate columns, inf for infinity, and no space for a blank entry: Here is an example for the first two blanks, using the required format, for the above example table: First blank (Step 0):          u;2,u;5,u;1,u;inf;inf Second blank (Step 1):   ux;2,u;4,x;;2,x;inf Note: When multiple nodes have the same minimum distance, select the node that comes first alphabetically. In this problem, the columns should be N’;D(v),p(v);D(w),p(w);D(x),p(x);D(y),p(y);D(z),p(z). Step 0: Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Step 4: Step 5:

Identify and explain the significance of the passage below (1-2 well developed paragraphs). You should identify the author and ideally title of the work, but focus on explaining the philosophical significance of the passage: Explain carefully the important claims that the author makes in the passage, and explain how those claims fit into the author’s broader argument or overall account.  The more carefully and in detail you can develop your answer the better.   “The science of constructing a commonwealth, or renovating it, or reforming it, is, like every other experimental science, not to be taught a priori. Nor is it a short experience that can instruct us in that practical science; because the real effects of moral causes are not always immediate, but that which in the first instance is prejudicial may be excellent in its remoter operation, and its excellence may arise even from the ill effects it produces in the beginning. The reverse also happens; and very plausible schemes, with very pleasing commencements, have often shameful and lamentable conclusions. In states there are often some obscure and almost latent causes, things which appear at first view of little moment, on which a very great part of its prosperity or adversity may most essentially depend. The science of government being, therefore, so practical in itself, and intended for such practical purposes, a matter which requires experience, and even more experience than any person can gain in his whole life, however sagacious and observing he may be, it is with infinite caution that any man ought to venture upon pulling down an edifice which has answered in any tolerable degree for ages the common purposes of society, or on building it up again without having models and patterns of approved utility before his eyes.”
