Hamiltonian Path Check

Problem

Decide whether an undirected graph with n nodes contains a Hamiltonian path: a path that visits every node exactly once.

Use backtracking from every possible start node, pruning with visited sets. edges is a list of [u, v] pairs and n is small.

Hint

A node of degree 1 must be an endpoint of any Hamiltonian path.
