+# Reconstruct Itinerary
+
+Given a list of airline tickets where tickets[i] = [fromi, toi] represent a departure airport and an arrival airport of
+a single flight, reconstruct the itinerary in the correct order and return it.
+
+The person who owns these tickets always starts their journey from "JFK". Therefore, the itinerary must begin with "JFK".
+If there are multiple valid itineraries, you should prioritize the one with the smallest lexical order when considering
+a single string.
+
+> Lexicographical order is a way of sorting similar to how words are arranged in a dictionary. It compares items 
+> character by character, based on their order in the alphabet or numerical value.
+
+- For example, the itinerary ["JFK", "EDU"] has a smaller lexical order than ["JFK", "EDX"].
+
+> Note: You may assume all tickets form at least one valid itinerary. You must use all the tickets exactly once.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- 1 <= `tickets.length` <= 300
+- `tickets[i].length` == 2
+- `fromi.length` == 3
+- `toi.length` == 3
+- `fromi` != `toi`
+- `fromi` and `toi` consist of upper case English letters

+
+## Solution
+
+The algorithm uses __Hierholzer’s algorithm__ to reconstruct travel itineraries from a list of airline tickets. This 
+problem is like finding an __Eulerian path__ but with a fixed starting point, “JFK”. Hierholzer’s algorithm is great for
+finding Eulerian paths and cycles, which is why we use it here.
+
+> Hierholzer's algorithm is a method for finding an Eulerian circuit (a cycle that visits every edge exactly once) in a 
+> graph. It starts from any vertex and follows edges until it returns to the starting vertex, forming a cycle. If there
+> are any unvisited edges, it starts a new cycle from a vertex on the existing cycle that has unvisited edges and merges
+> the cycles. The process continues until all edges are visited.
+
+> An Eulerian path is a trail in a graph that visits every edge exactly once. An Eulerian path can exist only if exactly
+> zero or two vertices have an odd degree. If there are exactly zero vertices with an odd degree, the path can form a
+> circuit (Eulerian circuit), where the starting and ending points are the same. If there are exactly two vertices with
+> an odd degree, the path starts at one of these vertices and ends at the other.
+
+The algorithm starts by arranging the destinations in reverse lexicographical order to ensure we always choose the
+smallest destination first. It then uses depth-first search (DFS) starting from “JFK” to navigate the flights. As it
+explores each flight path, it builds the itinerary by appending each visited airport when there are no more destinations
+to visit from that airport. Since the airports are added in reverse order during this process, the final step is to
+reverse the list to get the correct itinerary.
+
+The basic algorithm to solve this problem will be:
+
+1. Create a dictionary, `flight_map`, to store the flight information. Each key represents an airport; its corresponding
+   value is a list of destinations from that airport.
+2. Initialize an empty list, result, to store the reconstructed itinerary.
+3. Sort the destinations lexicographically in reverse order to ensure that the smallest destination is chosen first.
+4. Perform DFS traversal starting from the airport "JFK".
+   - Get the list of destinations for the current airport from flight_map.
+   - While there are destinations available:
+     - Pop the next_destination from destinations.
+     - Recursively explore all available flights starting from the popped next_destination, until all possible flights
+       have been considered.
+   - Append the current airport to the result list.
+5. Return the result list in reverse order to ensure the itinerary starts from the initial airport, "JFK", and proceeds
+   through the subsequent airports in the correct order.
+
+Let’s look at the following illustration to get a better understanding of the solution:

+### Time Complexity
+
+Each edge (flight) is traversed once during the DFS process in the algorithm, resulting in a complexity proportional to
+the number of edges, ∣E∣.
+Before DFS, the outgoing edges for each airport must be sorted. The sorting operation’s complexity depends on the input
+graph’s structure.
+In the worst-case scenario, such as a highly unbalanced graph (e.g., star-shaped), where one airport (e.g., JFK)
+dominates the majority of flights, the sorting operation on this airport becomes highly expensive, possibly reaching N log N
+complexity where `N = |E|/2` In a more balanced or average scenario, where each airport has a roughly equal number of 
+outgoing flights, the sorting operation complexity remains O(N log N) where N represents half of the total number of
+edges divided by twice the number of airports O(|E|/2|V|). Thus, the algorithm’s overall complexity is O(|E|log|E/2|),
+emphasizing the significance of the sorting operation in determining its performance.
+
+### Space Complexity
+
+The space complexity is O(∣V∣+∣E∣), where ∣V∣ is the number of airports and ∣E∣ is the number of flights.
