+/**
+ * Implementation of Hierholzer's Algorithm for finding an Eulerian Path or Circuit
+ * in a directed graph.
+ *
+ *
+ * An Eulerian Circuit is a path that starts and ends at the same vertex
+ * and visits every edge exactly once.
+ *
+ *
+ *
+ * An Eulerian Path visits every edge exactly once but may start and end
+ * at different vertices.
+ *
+ *
+ *
+ * Algorithm Summary:
+ * 1. Compute indegree and outdegree for all vertices.
+ * 2. Check if the graph satisfies Eulerian path or circuit conditions.
+ * 3. Verify that all vertices with non-zero degree are weakly connected (undirected connectivity).
+ * 4. Use Hierholzer’s algorithm to build the path by exploring unused edges iteratively.
+ *
+ *
+ *
+ * Time Complexity: O(E + V).
+ * Space Complexity: O(V + E).
