Number of Hamiltonian cycle

Given an undirected complete graph of N vertices where N > 2. The task is to find the number of different Hamiltonian cycle of the graph.
Complete Graph: A graph is said to be complete if each possible vertices is connected through an Edge.
Hamiltonian Cycle: It is a closed walk such that each vertex is visited at most once except the initial vertex. and it is not necessary to visit all the edges.
Formula: 
 

Examples: 
 

Input : N = 6
Output : Hamiltonian cycles = 60

Input : N = 4
Output : Hamiltonian cycles = 3

 

Explanation: 
Let us take the example of N = 4 complete undirected graph, The 3 different hamiltonian cycle is as shown below:
 

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
 




// C++ program for implementation of the
// above program
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function that calculates
// number of Hamiltonian cycle
int Cycles(int N)
{
 
    int fact = 1, result = 0;
 
    result = N - 1;
 
    // Calculating factorial
    int i = result;
    while (i > 0) {
        fact = fact * i;
        i--;
    }
 
    return fact / 2;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int N = 5;
 
    int Number = Cycles(N);
 
    cout << "Hamiltonian cycles = " << Number;
    return 0;
}




// Java program for implementation
// of the above program
class GFG
{
     
// Function that calculates
// number of Hamiltonian cycle
static int Cycles(int N)
{
    int fact = 1, result = 0;
 
    result = N - 1;
 
    // Calculating factorial
    int i = result;
    while (i > 0)
    {
        fact = fact * i;
        i--;
    }
 
    return fact / 2;
}
 
// Driver code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    int N = 5;
 
    int Number = Cycles(N);
 
    System.out.println("Hamiltonian cycles = " +
                                        Number);
}
}

Output: 
Hamiltonian cycles = 12

 

Time Complexity: O(n)
