The police department in the city of Computopia has made all streets one-way. The mayor contends that there is still a way to drive legally from any intersection in the city to any other intersection, but the opposition is not convinced. A computer program is needed to determine whether the mayor is right. However, the city elections are coming up soon, and there is just enough time to run a linear-time algorithm. (a) Formulate this problem graph-theoretically, and explain why it can indeed be solved in linear time.
(b) Suppose it now turns out that the mayor’s original claim is false. She next claims something weaker: if you start driving from town hall, navigating one-way streets, then no matter where you reach, there is always a way to drive legally back to the town hall. Formulate this weaker property as a graph-theoretic problem, and carefully show how it too can be checked in linear time.

The elements of an integer-valued array can be set to 0 (i. e., the array can be cleared) recursively as follows: an array of size 0 is already cleared; otherwise, set the first element of the array to 0, and clear the rest of the array write a void function named clear that accepts an integer array, and the number of elements in the array and sets the elements of the array to 0.
