Question - Picobot, a solar-paneled robot trapped indoors for weeks, has just managed to reached the outdoors, but it's cloudy outside, and it barely gets enough energy for the next task. It could recharge fully at a working outlet, but the outlets seem to all be disconnected on the ground floor! There is one power source and N outlets, as well as a length x of wire which can be cut as necessary. To power an outlet, that outlet can either be connected directly to the power source, or to another outlet that is already powered. Give an algorithm that will give a list of connections to be made, such that in the end, each outlet has an electrical path to the power source, or report that one does not exist. For clarity, we will number the power source as item 0, and number the outlets 1 through N. For any pair of items, you can invoke the function dist(i, j) to find the wire length required to make a direct connection between items i and j.
