What I have tried:

Please, someone understand this many zeros in "graph"?
I´m seeing many videos of this algorithm, but i can figure out what are those zeros.
Can somebody help me?

1 solution

In an adjacency matrix of a graph, a value of zero means that there is no edge between corresponding vertices.
For example, in the matrix you have shown, note that the values in the diagonal are all zeroes, because there is no loop edge on any node.
For values outside the diagonal, you can see that there is no edge between first vertex and third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and ninth. There are only edges between first vertex and second and eighth.
Vertex Nb             1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9
First vertex's edges  0  4  0  0  0  0  0  8  0

And the same for other lines of the matrix (second line = second vertex, etc.).
Maybe you should have a deeper look at the core graph theory?
