Describe a traveling salesman scenario from your own experience. How can the nearest neighbor heuristic be used to solve it?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary, but the general idea is the student must describe a tour among some number of nodes that required a return to home base. The nearest neighbor heuristic begins at the start node and adds the closest node to the route. From this node, the closest unvisited node is added, and so on, until all nodes have been scheduled. Finally, the starting point traversed from the last node added.
