Question

I need the algorithm, proof of correctness and runtime analysis for the problem. No code necessary ONLY algorithm. And runtime should be O(n + m) as stated in the question.

You are given a directed graph G = (V, E) and two vertices s and t. Moreover, each edge of
this graph is colored either blue or red. Your goal is to find whether there is at least one path from s to t
such that all red edges in this path appear after all blue edges (the path may not contain any blue edges or
any red edges, but if it has both types of edges, all red edges should appear after all blue edges).
Design and analyze an algorithm for solving this problem in O(n + m) time.
