Paths, cycles, trees, Euler and Hamilton
Connectivity, spanning trees, Euler circuits and the bridges of Königsberg.
A tree is a connected graph with no cycles: n vertices, n − 1 edges. Euler proved a graph has a circuit using every edge once exactly when every degree is even. The Königsberg bridges failed. Picture it: the seven bridges; four land masses with odd degree. Think it: Euler's condition is local (degrees) yet decides a global question, the first theorem of topology.

사람들이 묻는 질문
Permutation or combination?
Ask whether order matters. A lock code is a permutation (order matters); a hand of cards is a combination (it does not).
What is a graph in this sense?
Dots (vertices) joined by lines (edges), not a plot. Road maps, social networks and molecules are graphs; questions like "is there a route" and "how few colours" are graph theory.
