you will be required to find the weights of minimum spanning trees in g maximum random forest. a minimum spanning forest is a union of the minimum spanning trees for its connected components. code example
Example: find the graph is minimal spanig tree or not
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <utility>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
const int MAX = 1e4 + 5;
int id[MAX], nodes, edges;
pair <long long, pair<int, int> > p[MAX];
void initialize()
{
for(int i = 0;i < MAX;++i)
id[i] = i;
}
int root(int x)
{
while(id[x] != x)
{
id[x] = id[id[x]];
x = id[x];
}
return x;
}
void union1(int x, int y)
{
int p = root(x);
int q = root(y);
id[p] = id[q];
}
long long kruskal(pair<long long, pair<int, int> > p[])
{
int x, y;
long long cost, minimumCost = 0;
for(int i = 0;i < edges;++i)
{
x = p[i].second.first;
y = p[i].second.second;
cost = p[i].first;
if(root(x) != root(y))
{
minimumCost += cost;
union1(x, y);
}
}
return minimumCost;
}
int main()
{
int x, y;
long long weight, cost, minimumCost;
initialize();
cin >> nodes >> edges;
for(int i = 0;i < edges;++i)
{
cin >> x >> y >> weight;
p[i] = make_pair(weight, make_pair(x, y));
}
sort(p, p + edges);
minimumCost = kruskal(p);
cout << minimumCost << endl;
return 0;
}
