207. Course Schedule

There are a total of n courses you have to take, labeled from 0 to n-1.

Some courses may have prerequisites, for example to take course 0 you have to first take course 1, which is expressed as a pair: [0,1]

Given the total number of courses and a list of prerequisite pairs, is it possible for you to finish all courses?

Example 1:
Input: 2, [[1,0]]
Output: true
Explanation: There are a total of 2 courses to take.
To take course 1 you should have finished course 0. So it is possible.

Example 2:
Input: 2, [[1,0],[0,1]]
Output: false
Explanation: There are a total of 2 courses to take.
To take course 1 you should have finished course 0, and to take course 0 you should also have finished course 1. So it is impossible.

Note:
The input prerequisites is a graph represented by a list of edges, not adjacency matrices. Read more about how a graph is represented.
You may assume that there are no duplicate edges in the input prerequisites.

难道: medium

题目:
课程编号为0到n-1的n门课程需要我们去学习。
学习某些课程需要先学习其预备课程，例如学习课程0就要先学习课程1, 用如下形式表示这种关系[0, 1].
给定全部课程数，以及这种课程与课程之前的关系，是否可以完成全部课程学习？

注意：

1. 前置课程是由一些边组成的图不是毗邻的矩阵。
2. 你可以假定前置课程这种关系表示没有重复的输入。

思路：
BFS, DFS
拓扑图遍历
1.找出一个出度为0的结点。
2.移除该出度为0结点的所有边，然后执行1.
