Overview
Even if the algorithm was named after Prim, it was discovered earlier by Jarník.
Non-Optimized Implementation
The Prim algorithm randomly selects a node and then, in a loop where at each iteration a new node is added to the "explored territory", it selects the node that can be reached via the cheapest edge.
