Three basic functions: Also sometimes called union(a, b) ○ connect(a, b) ■ brings b into a’s empire (a conquers b) ○ isConnected(a, b) ■ returns whether or not a and b are in the same empire. ○ find(a) ■ Returns the “ruler” of empire a. Implementations of Disjoint Sets Disjoint sets can be implemented in multiple ways, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. ○ Quick Find → quick to find if two are connected ○ Quick Union → quick to connect ○ Weighted Quick Union → quick union, but with some optimization Quick Find Use an array to store which set each element is in. Called quick find because it is very fast to find if two elements are in the same set (isConnected(a,b)), since you just need to check if id[a] = id[b]. 0 4 1 2 3 5 6 { 0, 1, 2, 4 }, {3, 5}, {6} 0 int[] id 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 0 0 3 0 3 6 Analogy: Each set is an “empire” and is identified by its ruler. 0, 3, 6 are the individual rulers and all the other elements belong to their empires. Quick Union Use an array to store the parent of each node -1 indicates that an item is a root. int[] parent 1 0 0 1 1 2 1 0 3 3 4 5 1 6 0 3 1 4 2 6 5 Weighted Quick Union Quick Union,
