(ii) Perform the fourth iteration.
There are no changes on the fifth iteration, so your answer to part (ii) should give the complete network of shortest distances.
(iii) Use your matrices to find the shortest distance and route from vertex \(\mathbf { 3 }\) to vertex \(\mathbf { 1 }\), and explain how you do it.
(iv) Draw the complete network of shortest distances, not including the loops.
(v) Apply the nearest neighbour algorithm to your network in part (iv), starting at vertex 2. Give the length of the Hamilton cycle that is produced.
Interpret the Hamilton cycle in terms of the original diagram and state what the algorithm has achieved.

- Mickey ate the last of the cheese. Minnie was put out at this. Mickey's defence was "There wasn't enough left not to eat it all".
Let "c" represent "there is enough cheese for two" and "e" represent "one person can eat all of the cheese".
- Which of the following best captures Mickey's argument?
$$\mathrm { c } \Rightarrow \mathrm { e } \quad \mathrm { c } \Rightarrow \sim \mathrm { e } \quad \sim _ { \mathrm { c } } \Rightarrow \mathrm { e } \quad \sim \mathrm { c } \Rightarrow \sim \mathrm { e }$$
In the ensuing argument Minnie concedes that if there's a lot left then one should not eat it all, but argues that this is not an excuse for Mickey having eaten it all when there was not a lot left.
- Prove that Minnie is right by writing down a line of a truth table which shows that
$$( c \Rightarrow \sim e ) \Leftrightarrow ( \sim c \Rightarrow e )$$
is false.
(You may produce the whole table if you wish, but you need to indicate a specific line of the table.)
- Show that the following combinatorial circuit is modelling an implication statement. Say what that statement is, and prove that the circuit and the statement are equivalent.

2 The network is a representation of a show garden. The weights on the arcs give the times in minutes to walk between the six features represented by the vertices, where paths exist.

The matrices shown below are the results of the first iteration of Floyd's algorithm when applied to the network.
