* It should be obvious that a's preceding of b in the CFG is not necessary for even immediate dominance of b by a.

Loops can be discovered via domination analysis (it is important to note that this refers to loops in the generated code, not loop constructs of the source language, and furthermore that all possible loops will be found (ie, unstructured loops constructed from C <tt>goto</tt>s)). Discover all strongly-connected subgraphs of the CFG (subgraphs where, for each vertex, a path ('''not''' necessarily an edge) exists from that vertex to all other nodes of the subgraph); if a subgraph contains a node dominating all that subgraph's nodes, the subgraph is a loop. The trivial case is, of course, a statement which jumps to itself, ala the BASIC program <tt>10 GOTO 10</tt>. Implementation via [[Kosaraju's Algorithm]] is simple, with O(|V|+|E|) time complexity using graph encoding and O(N<sup>2</sup>) time complexity using adjacency matrices:

* First, perform a recursive depth-first traversal of the graph starting from s. Each time you return, add that node onto an auxiliary vector. Upon the DFS's completion, this vector will hold all nodes in a topologically sorted order.
* Perform a recursive depth-first traversal of the graph starting from s. Each time you return, add that node onto an auxiliary vector. Upon the traversal's completion, this vector sorts the nodes topologically.
* Next, until the the vector is empty, use the last node of the vector to begin traversing the transpose graph, removing each node reached from the vector. These disconnected traversals partition the graph into strongly connected components.
