// 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.
