## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
Similar to <dfn>breadth-first search</dfn>, here we will learn about another graph traversal algorithm called <dfn>depth-first search</dfn>.
|
|
Whereas the breadth-first search searches incremental edge lengths away from the source node, <dfn>depth-first search</dfn> first goes down a path of edges as far as it can.
|
|
Once it reaches one end of a path, the search will backtrack to the last node with an un-visited edge path and continue searching.
|
|
Visually, this is what the algorithm is doing where the top node is the starting point of the search.

A simple output of this algorithm is a list of nodes which are reachable from a given node. So when implementing this algorithm, you'll need to keep track of the nodes you visit.

## Instructions
|
|
<section id='instructions'>
|
|
Write a function <code>dfs()</code> that takes an undirected, adjacency matrix <code>graph</code> and a node label <code>root</code> as parameters. The node label will just be the numeric value of the node between <code>0</code> and <code>n - 1</code>, where <code>n</code> is the total number of nodes in the graph.
|
|
Your function should output an array of all nodes reachable from <code>root</code>.
