FASTFLOW - Fast Maximum Flow
Given a graph with N (2 ≤ N ≤ 5,000) vertices numbered 1 to N and M (1 ≤ M ≤ 30,000) undirected, weighted edges, compute the maximum flow / minimum cut from vertex 1 to vertex N.
Input
The first line contains the two integers N and M. The next M lines each contain three integers A, B, and C, denoting that there is an edge of capacity C (1 ≤ C ≤ 109) between nodes A and B (1 ≤ A, B ≤ N). Note that it is possible for there to be duplicate edges, as well as an edge from a node to itself.
Output
Print a single integer (which may not fit into a 32-bit integer) denoting the maximum flow / minimum cut between 1 and N.
Example
Input: 4 6 1 2 3 2 3 4 3 1 2 2 2 5 3 4 3 4 3 3 Output: 5
Viewing the problem as max-flow, we may send 3 units of flow through the path 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 and 2 units of flow through the path 1 - 3 - 4. Viewing the problem as min-cut, we may cut the first and third edges. Either way the total is 5.
Note: see also MATCHING.

| vq_hoang0907: 2024-06-16 16:29:58 BFS Ford-Fulkerson get TLE? There is still a faster way for this problem? |
| the5threich: 2024-04-24 23:00:07 Why does Dinitz (with scaling) work here? Isn't that O(VElog(U)) ? I am new to flow graphs, Please be 'less' harsh on me... |
| coderdhanraj: 2023-09-03 18:12:45 1. Those who don't getting how example is 5 rather than 3 you had to make flow in both of the directions. |
| lokesh_2052: 2021-08-08 11:39:02 @tjandra most of people didn't do this in C because most of people including me using template or built in code write the algorithm . Sorry if someone get offend. |
| dhruvgheewala: 2021-03-24 10:38:08 Getting WA on testcase 11, any idea?? |
| sarkybastard: 2020-09-24 23:26:53 WA on test 11? Nope, WA on any test up to and including 11. |
| nemesys: 2020-09-24 04:54:00 WA on test 11, why? |
| aks_010: 2020-05-24 09:18:09 I am getting TLE on test case 11 using Ford-Fulkerson Algo. Does it need to be done using Dinic Algo? Last edit: 2020-05-24 09:19:05 |
| tarun2619: 2018-11-16 15:50:10 @magmine Since a flow network is directed and the edges given here are undirected. So, for every undirected edge {u, v}, we must add 2 directed edges to our flow network, (u, v) and (v, u) each of capacity w. Your mistake might be adding only a directed edge from u to v of weight w and not the other edge from v to u of the same weight. |
| magmine: 2018-11-06 16:51:34 Please some help, I'm using Ford-Fulkerson algorithm to solve this problem, but this algorithm gives as solution to the example test case 3 rather than 5, Can some one point out why ? |
