What is a DAG? The Essence in a Nutshell
SMRTR summary
A Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is a network of nodes connected by directional arrows, with no path that loops back to its starting point. This simple rule makes DAGs powerful across many fields; they drive build tools like Make, Git's commit history, TensorFlow's AI computations, and blockchain networks like IOTA. Their biggest advantage is turning hard computational problems into fast, solvable ones using topological sorting.
