    Do I understand this correctly, that the first astronaut’s realization is that all data structures are graphs?

    If yes, that doesn’t make much sense. How is an array a graph?

      One could make the case that we can transform an k size array to a k-vertex-connected graph

      Because traversing from one element to any other element is an O(1) operation using index arithmetics.

      Same for n dimensional matrices.
