What's a Euler Circuit?

In graph theory, an Eulerian trail is a trail in a finite graph that visits every edge exactly once. Similarly, an Eulerian circuit or Eulerian cycle is an Eulerian trail that starts and ends on the same vertex.

What makes a Euler circuit?

An Euler circuit is a circuit that uses every edge of a graph exactly once. ▶ An Euler path starts and ends at different vertices. ▶ An Euler circuit starts and ends at the same vertex.

How do you find the Euler circuit?

A graph has an Euler circuit if and only if the degree of every vertex is even. A graph has an Euler path if and only if there are at most two vertices with odd degree.
