Primary sourceIn the study of history as an academic discipline, a primary source (also called an original source) is an artifact, document, diary, manuscript, autobiography, recording, or any other source of information that was created at the time under study. It serves as an original source of information about the topic. Similar definitions can be used in library science and other areas of scholarship, although different fields have somewhat different definitions.
Algorithme de DijkstraEn théorie des graphes, l'algorithme de Dijkstra (prononcé ) sert à résoudre le problème du plus court chemin. Il permet, par exemple, de déterminer un plus court chemin pour se rendre d'une ville à une autre connaissant le réseau routier d'une région. Plus précisément, il calcule des plus courts chemins à partir d'une source vers tous les autres sommets dans un graphe orienté pondéré par des réels positifs. On peut aussi l'utiliser pour calculer un plus court chemin entre un sommet de départ et un sommet d'arrivée.
Historical sourceHistorical source is an original source that contains important historical information. These sources are something that inform us about history at the most basic level, and are used as clues in order to study history. Historical sources can include coins, artefacts, monuments, literary sources, documents, artifacts, archaeological sites, features, oral transmissions, stone inscriptions, paintings, recorded sounds, images and oral history. Even ancient relics and ruins, broadly speaking, are historical sources.
