A clear science explanation breaks down how lightning forms and why it branches through the air instead of traveling in a straight line to the ground. Winter storm warning for 36 inches of snow: ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...
