+/**
+ * The Welsh-Powell algorithm is a graph coloring algorithm that aims to color a graph
+ * using the minimum number of colors such that no two adjacent vertices share the same color.
+ *
+ * <p>
+ * The algorithm works by:
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>Sorting the vertices in descending order based on their degrees (number of edges connected).</li>
+ * <li>Iterating through each vertex and assigning it the smallest available color that has not been used by its adjacent vertices.</li>
+ * <li>Coloring adjacent vertices with the same color is avoided.</li>
+ * </ol>
+ * </p>
+ *
+ * <p>
