  // ostream_iterator, or it could be a back/front_insert_iterator.
  // Note that if it is a back_insert_iterator, the recorded order is
  // the reverse topological order. On the other hand, if it is a
  // front_insert_iterator, the recorded order is the topological
  // order.

  // Topological Sort
  //
  // The topological sort algorithm creates a linear ordering
  // of the vertices such that if edge (u,v) appears in the graph,
  // then u comes before v in the ordering. The graph must
  // be a directed acyclic graph (DAG). The implementation
  // consists mainly of a call to depth-first search.
