What changed
Published Algorithm 97 for all-pairs shortest-path computation via intermediate-vertex updates.
Scientific scope
The record is Floyd's sole-author 1962 Algorithm 97 note. It remains distinct from Warshall's Boolean transitive-closure recurrence, later negative-cycle handling and subsequent implementation refinements.
