  // actually any color other than white or gray) in the color map.  The color
  // white is for vertices that are not part of the path, while gray is for
  // those that are on the path (for cycle detection).  The vector path is used
  // for temporary storage and as the result of the algorithm; while all
  // elements of the path except the last have their colors set to gray upon
  // return.  Vertex s must start off colored white.
