in reply to Graph Traversal

If you want some good insight into travelling salesman problems, try playing the board game Elflands by Alan Moon. I've only played it a few times, but I'm sure that after 10 games, I'd have a much better feel for coming up with an adequate TSP solution. Note that the perfect TSP solution is an NP complete problem, so don't aim for the optimal solution. Aim for "good enough".
