Adjacency list Adjacency matrix Only stores data where there is an Stores a value for every combination of adjacency (edge) so requires less memory. node adjacencies so requires more memory. The list has to be parsed to identify Adjacencies can be identified more whether particular adjacencies exist, quickly as every combination is already which increases the time taken to process stored. Effectively the matrix forms a the data. look-up table of each node to every other node. Where there are not that many edges Where there are many edges (lots of (few adjacencies), this method would be adjacencies), this method would be more suitable for the reasons stated more suitable for the reasons stated above. This is known as a sparse graph. above. This is known as a dense graph.
