A worm is a standalone malware program that replicates itself in order to spread. It often uses a computer network to spread itself, relying on security failures on the target computer to access it.

The above adjacency matrix represents the network (a directed graph). The weight of the edge between and is the probability of the worm moving from to . Suppose the worm moves from node to node . Which of the following is the least probable path it will take?
