Breadth-First Search (BFS) is a fundamental graph traversal algorithm used to explore the nodes and edges of a graph or tree data structure. It starts at a specified node (known as the "source" or "starting node") and explores all its neighboring nodes at the present depth prior to moving on to nodes at the next depth level.
