 # Motivation
 
 Subgraph matching is the task of finding instances of a query graph within a larger data graph. It is useful when

+searching for patterns in a graph structure, such as searching a graph database. It is a fundamental
 problem in graph theory with applications in pattern recognition, databases, security, and biochemistry.
 
+An illustrative example is finding relationships in social networks. Consider a network like LinkedIn where each node is
+a person, and each edge represents a connection. You are tasked with finding cases where five software developers and a
+doctor all know each other. You can make a query graph with developers and a doctor, and search for instances of that
+query in the larger network.

 # What is a subgraph isomorphism?
 
 A graph is a structure consisting of a set of objects where some pairs of objects are connected. A graph isomorphism is
