= PC algorithm
{c}

The PC algorithm starts with a candidate undirected graph, removes edges using <conditional independence> tests over increasing conditioning-set sizes, records separating sets, then orients unshielded colliders and propagates orientations. Under oracle tests and <faithfulness of a directed acyclic graph>, it estimates the graph's Markov equivalence class.
