Given a graph represented as an adjacency list, write a function to perform a Depth-First Search (DFS) traversal starting from a given node. The function should print each visited node. Also, provide an example graph and demonstrate how your function would traverse it. Explain the time and space complexity of your solution. For example, consider the following graph: { 0: [1, 2], 1: [2], 2: [0, 3], 3: [3] } If we start the DFS traversal from node 2, the expected output would be: 2, 0, 1, 3 (or another valid DFS traversal order). Your function should: Take the graph (adjacency list) and a starting node as input. Implement DFS traversal. Print each visited node. Correctly handle cycles to avoid infinite loops. Analyze and state the time and space complexity of your implementation.

Let's design a turnstile. A turnstile is a type of gate which allows one person to pass at a time. Consider a turnstile at a subway station. There are two panels that rotate to allow a single person passage. The turnstile has two states, Locked and Unlocked, and the customer can either Push the turnstile or Insert a token/card. Here is the state transition table: | Event | Current State | Action | Next State | | :----- | :------------ | :------------- | :--------- | | Push | Locked | | Locked | | Token | Locked | Unlock | Unlocked | | Push | Unlocked | Pass through | Locked | | Token | Unlocked | (discarded) | Unlocked | Requirements: Model the state and behavior of a simple turnstile. Implement two methods: insert_token() push() Consider edge cases and error handling. What happens if someone tries to push without inserting a token? What happens if the system malfunctions? Example: turnstile = Turnstile() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked turnstile.push() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked turnstile.insert_token() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Unlocked turnstile.push() print(turnstile.state) # Output: Locked How would you approach this design and implementation, keeping in mind scalability, maintainability, and potential future extensions such as different types of tokens or remote unlocking?
