[[There is a linked black web, with a path in red]]
Brute-force solution:
O(n!)
[[The web continues in this one. A man with a hat and a case is drawing it]]
Dynamic programming algorithms: O(n^2 2^n)
[[Another man, with a hat too, is at a computer, looking back over the chair]]
Selling on eBay: O(1)
Computer salesman: Still working on your route?
Drawing salesman: Shut the hell up.
