A somewhat-not-short blog on flow with demands

7 minute read

Published:

I started trying to learn about flows with demands about 3-4 years ago while in high school from this cp-algorithm post, but for some reason the construction presented in that blog was pretty alien and unintuitive for me, so I never really understood how it worked. As I entered college and took my algorithm class though, I was introduced to this extremely nice construction that stuck with me from that day, and it even helped me earn my first publication.
