Solve the problem.The figure below shows the paths that run through a nature park. Have the paths been designed in such a way that it is possible for a visitor to find a route that begins and ends at the entrance (represented by vertex A) and that goes along each path exactly once? If so, use Fleury's algorithm to find such a route.
