*Algorithm for the Minimum Spanning Tree Problem:
1. Select any node arbitrarily, and then connect it (Le., add a link) to the nearest distinct node
2. Identify the unconnected node that is closest to a connected node, and then connect these two nodes fe, add a link between them). Repeat this step until all nodes have been connected.
3. Tie breaking: Ties for the nearest distinct node (step 1) or the closest unconnected node (step 2) may be broken arbitrarily, and the algorithm must still yield an optimal solution. However, such ties are a signal that
there may be (but need not be) multiple optimal solutions. All such optimal solutions can be Identified by pursuing all ways of breaking ties to their conclusion.
Use the algorithm given below. The actual distances between the corresponding nodes is given by OA-16, 08-15, AC=17, BC-16, OC-18. AD-15, BE 18, CD=14, CE-17, DF 14, EF 13, DG-16, El 17, FG=14, FH-17, EH-14, HI-15, GH-14, HT-20, GT-19, IT-16, CF-14 H B E
