Why the Seven Bridges of Königsberg Can’t Be Crossed in One Walk – Euler’s Insight

Euler’s classic solution to the Seven Bridges of Königsberg demonstrates how abstracting a real‑world puzzle into a graph reveals that a walk crossing each bridge exactly once is impossible, introducing the Eulerian path theorem that a connected graph is traversable only when it has zero or two odd‑degree vertices.
