如果你有指向父节点的指针，你可以在没有额外内存的情况下完成。

def dfs(root):
    node = root
    while True:
        visit(node)
        if node.first_child:
            node = node.first_child      # walk down
        else:
            while not node.next_sibling:
                if node is root:
                    return
                node = node.parent       # walk up ...
            node = node.next_sibling     # ... and right

注意，如果子节点存储为数组而不是通过兄弟指针，那么下一个兄弟节点可以通过以下方式找到:

def next_sibling(node):
    try:
        i =    node.parent.child_nodes.index(node)
        return node.parent.child_nodes[i+1]
    except (IndexError, AttributeError):
        return None

你可以使用一个堆栈来保存尚未访问的节点:

stack.push(root)
while !stack.isEmpty() do
    node = stack.pop()
    for each node.childNodes do
        stack.push(stack)
    endfor
    // …
endwhile

你可以使用堆栈。我用邻接矩阵实现了图:

void DFS(int current){
    for(int i=1; i<N; i++) visit_table[i]=false;
    myStack.push(current);
    cout << current << "  ";
    while(!myStack.empty()){
        current = myStack.top();
        for(int i=0; i<N; i++){
            if(AdjMatrix[current][i] == 1){
                if(visit_table[i] == false){ 
                    myStack.push(i);
                    visit_table[i] = true;
                    cout << i << "  ";
                }
                break;
            }
            else if(!myStack.empty())
                myStack.pop();
        }
    }
}

使用ES6生成器的非递归DFS

class Node {
  constructor(name, childNodes) {
    this.name = name;
    this.childNodes = childNodes;
    this.visited = false;
  }
}

function *dfs(s) {
  let stack = [];
  stack.push(s);
  stackLoop: while (stack.length) {
    let u = stack[stack.length - 1]; // peek
    if (!u.visited) {
      u.visited = true; // grey - visited
      yield u;
    }

    for (let v of u.childNodes) {
      if (!v.visited) {
        stack.push(v);
        continue stackLoop;
      }
    }

    stack.pop(); // black - all reachable descendants were processed 
  }    
}

它与典型的非递归DFS不同，可以很容易地检测给定节点的所有可达后代何时被处理，并维护列表/堆栈中的当前路径。

这是一个java程序的链接，显示DFS同时遵循递归和非递归方法，还计算发现和完成时间，但没有边对齐。

    public void DFSIterative() {
    Reset();
    Stack<Vertex> s = new Stack<>();
    for (Vertex v : vertices.values()) {
        if (!v.visited) {
            v.d = ++time;
            v.visited = true;
            s.push(v);
            while (!s.isEmpty()) {
                Vertex u = s.peek();
                s.pop();
                boolean bFinished = true;
                for (Vertex w : u.adj) {
                    if (!w.visited) {
                        w.visited = true;
                        w.d = ++time;
                        w.p = u;
                        s.push(w);
                        bFinished = false;
                        break;
                    }
                }
                if (bFinished) {
                    u.f = ++time;
                    if (u.p != null)
                        s.push(u.p);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

基于biziclops的ES6实现很棒的答案:

root = { text: "root", children: [{ text: "c1", children: [{ text: "c11" }, { text: "c12" }] }, { text: "c2", children: [{ text: "c21" }, { text: "c22" }] }, ] } console.log("DFS:") DFS(root, node => node.children, node => console.log(node.text)); console.log("BFS:") BFS(root, node => node.children, node => console.log(node.text)); function BFS(root, getChildren, visit) { let nodesToVisit = [root]; while (nodesToVisit.length > 0) { const currentNode = nodesToVisit.shift(); nodesToVisit = [ ...nodesToVisit, ...(getChildren(currentNode) || []), ]; visit(currentNode); } } function DFS(root, getChildren, visit) { let nodesToVisit = [root]; while (nodesToVisit.length > 0) { const currentNode = nodesToVisit.shift(); nodesToVisit = [ ...(getChildren(currentNode) || []), ...nodesToVisit, ]; visit(currentNode); } }
