//! Minimum Feedback Arc Set problem implementation.
//!
//! The Feedback Arc Set problem asks for a minimum-weight subset of arcs
//! whose removal makes a directed graph acyclic (a DAG).

/// The Minimum Feedback Arc Set problem.
///
/// Given a directed graph G = (V, A) and weights w_a for each arc,
/// find a subset A' ⊆ A such that:
/// - Removing A' from G yields a directed acyclic graph (DAG)
/// - The total weight Σ_{a ∈ A'} w_a is minimized
///
/// # Variables
///
/// One binary variable per arc: x_a = 1 means arc a is in the feedback arc set (removed).
/// The configuration space has dimension m = |A|.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use problemreductions::models::graph::MinimumFeedbackArcSet;
/// use problemreductions::topology::DirectedGraph;
/// use problemreductions::{Problem, Solver, BruteForce};
///
/// // Directed cycle: 0->1->2->0
/// let graph = DirectedGraph::new(3, vec![(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 0)]);
/// let problem = MinimumFeedbackArcSet::new(graph, vec![1i32; 3]);
///
/// // Solve with brute force
/// let solver = BruteForce::new();
/// let solution = solver.find_witness(&problem).unwrap();
///
/// // Minimum FAS has size 1 (remove any single arc to break the cycle)
/// assert_eq!(solution.iter().sum::<usize>(), 1);
