How to Implement Disjoint Set Union Find in Python
Implement a Disjoint Set Union-Find data structure using a Python dictionary for parent tracking, with path compression and connectivity checks.
class DisjointSet:
def __init__(self):
self.parent = {}
def find(self, x):
# Path compression
if self.parent[x] != x:
self.parent[x] = self.find(self.parent[x])
return self.parent[x]
