This problem uses DFS and BFS to determine if a graph can be topologically sorted.

  1. The BFS approach first converts the given pairs into a graph stored in a vector<unordered_set> format, then calculates the in-degree of each node. It starts by finding nodes with an in-degree of 0. If none are found, it returns false. Once a node with an in-degree of 0 is found, its in-degree is marked as -1, and the in-degree of its neighboring nodes is decremented by 1. This process is repeated n times. If a node with an in-degree of 0 can be found each time, then a topological sort is possible.
class Solution {
public:
    bool canFinish(int numCourses, vector<pair<int, int>>& prerequisites) {
        vector<unordered_set<int>> graph = make_graph(numCourses, prerequisites);
        vector<int> degrees = compute_indegree(graph);
        for (int i = 0; i < numCourses; i++) {
            int j = 0;
            for (; j < numCourses; j++)
                if (!degrees[j]) break;
            if (j == numCourses) return false;
            degrees[j] = -1;
            for (int neigh : graph[j])
                degrees[neigh]--;
        }
        return true;
    }
private:
    vector<unordered_set<int>> make_graph(int numCourses, vector<pair<int, int>>& prerequisites) {
        vector<unordered_set<int>> graph(numCourses);
        for (auto pre : prerequisites)
            graph[pre.second].insert(pre.first);
        return graph;
    }
    vector<int> compute_indegree(vector<unordered_set<int>>& graph) {
        vector<int> degrees(graph.size(), 0);
        for (auto neighbors : graph)
            for (int neigh : neighbors)
                degrees[neigh]++;
        return degrees;
    }
};
  1. The DFS approach checks for cycles in the graph using DFS. It uses onPath as a marker array to indicate if a node has been visited on the current path and visited to mark nodes that have already been visited. The function dfs_cycle() checks if there is a cycle on the current DFS path.
class Solution {
public:
    bool canFinish(int numCourses, vector<pair<int, int>>& prerequisites) {
        vector<unordered_set<int>> graph = make_graph(numCourses, prerequisites);
        vector<bool> onpath(numCourses, false), visited(numCourses, false);
        for (int i = 0; i < numCourses; i++)
            if (!visited[i] && dfs_cycle(graph, i, onpath, visited))
                return false;
        return true;
    }
private:
    vector<unordered_set<int>> make_graph(int numCourses, vector<pair<int, int>>& prerequisites) {
        vector<unordered_set<int>> graph(numCourses);
        for (auto pre : prerequisites)
            graph[pre.second].insert(pre.first);
        return graph;
    }
    bool dfs_cycle(vector<unordered_set<int>>& graph, int node, vector<bool>& onpath, vector<bool>& visited) {
        if (visited[node]) return false;
        onpath[node] = visited[node] = true;
        for (int neigh : graph[node])
            if (onpath[neigh] || dfs_cycle(graph, neigh, onpath, visited))
                return true;
        return onpath[node] = false;
    }
};
