Java Program to Remove the Edges in a Given Cyclic Graph such that its Linear Extension can be Found

This is a java program to set of edges upon removal of which linear extension can be found. In simple terms this version of code finds the feedbackarc set, which when removed from graph leads to DAG for which we can find the topological sorting.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Remove the Edges in a Given Cyclic Graph such that its Linear Extension can be Found. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
