prims algorithm competitive program in cpp code example

Example: prims c++

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <queue>
#include <functional>
#include <utility>

using namespace std;
const int MAX = 1e4 + 5;
typedef pair<long long, int> PII;
bool marked[MAX];
vector <PII> adj[MAX];

long long prim(int x)
{
    priority_queue<PII, vector<PII>, greater<PII> > Q;
    int y;
    long long minimumCost = 0;
    PII p;
    Q.push(make_pair(0, x));
    while(!Q.empty())
    {
        // Select the edge with minimum weight
        p = Q.top();
        Q.pop();
        x = p.second;
        // Checking for cycle
        if(marked[x] == true)
            continue;
        minimumCost += p.first;

            if(marked[y] == false)
                Q.push(adj[x][i]);
        }
    }
    return minimumCost;
}

int main()
