ENGINEERING DEEP DIVE

Inside the system.

01 / THE CONTEXT

A transit route can minimize travel time or station stops, and the two objectives can produce different journeys. The repository turns a London Underground data table into an inspectable graph-analysis application.

02 / THE APPROACH

Modular graph utilities support Dijkstra routing, predecessor-based route reconstruction, and Kruskal minimum spanning trees with union–find. A command-line interface and bundled CSV input connect the algorithms to route inspection and network-wide journey analysis.

03 / EXPLORE FURTHER

Explore the graph, routing, and CLI modules alongside the original journey-time figures. The analysis uses a bundled dataset and distinct travel-time and station-count objectives.
