During an iteration while moving from one solution to the next, degeneracy may occur when
A) The closed path indicates a diagonal move
B) Two or more occupied cells are on the closed path but neither of them represents a corner of the path.
C) Two or more occupied cells on the closed path with minus sign are tied for lowest circled value
D) Either of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Degeneracy occurs when two or more occupied cells on the closed path with a minus sign have the same lowest circled value, leading to ambiguity in selecting the next solution.
