+Implementation from our class' lecture:\\
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> for each (v ∈ V) a[v] = ∞
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Initialize an empty priority queue Q
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> for each (v ∈ V) insert v onto Q
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Initialize set of explored nodes S = φ
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> while (Q is not empty)
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> u = delete min element from Q
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> S = S ∪ { u }
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> for each (edge e = (u, v) incident to u)
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> if (v ∉ S) and (c<sub>e</sub> < a[v])
+>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>decrease priority a[v] to c<sub>e</sub>

+There are several applications of the Minimum Spanning Tree algorithms, many can be found in the book.\\
+This was by far the most interesting reading of the chapter!I give it a 9/10.
