DIY: Word Ladder I

Explore how to implement the Word Ladder problem by transforming a starting word to a target word through valid intermediate words. Understand using BFS and DFS to find the shortest transformation path while applying key constraints and handling edge cases.

We'll cover the following...

Problem statement

You are given a list of words, a starting_word, and an ending_word. This problem requires you to find the minimum number of transitions required to convert the starting_word into the ending_wordunder the following constraints:

  • All the ...
