In today's lesson, we will learn what a minimum spanning tree is, how/why you might consider them for problem formulations, then we discuss what an optimization problem is.

Time Stamps:
0:00 Opening, recap of terminology; what is a spanning tree?
4:02 How do we compute a spanning tree?
4:36 What is a minimum spanning tree? Motivation with lazy turkeys and planning/applications.
14:45 What is the minimum spanning tree (MST) problem?
16:20 What is an optimization problem? Discussion and definition.
25:18 Closing

Have a beautiful day!
