/*This Java program is to Implement Disjoint set data structure. In computing, a disjoint-set data structure is a data structure that keeps track of a set of elements partitioned into a number of disjoint (nonoverlapping) subsets. A union-find algorithm is an algorithm that performs two useful operations on such a data structure: Find: Determine which subset a particular element is in. This can be used for determining if two elements are in the same subset. Union: Join two subsets into a single subset.*/ import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.HashSet; import java.util.List; import java.util.Map; import java.util.Set; public class DisjointSets { private List>> disjointSet; public DisjointSets() { disjointSet = new ArrayList>>(); } public void create_set(int element) { Map> map = new HashMap>(); Set set = new HashSet(); set.add(element); map.put(element, set); disjointSet.add(map); } public void union(int first, int second) { int first_rep = find_set(first); int second_rep = find_set(second); Set first_set = null; Set second_set = null; for (int index = 0; index < disjointSet.size(); index++) { Map> map = disjointSet.get(index); if (map.containsKey(first_rep)) { first_set = map.get(first_rep); } else if (map.containsKey(second_rep)) { second_set = map.get(second_rep); } } if (first_set != null && second_set != null) first_set.addAll(second_set); for (int index = 0; index < disjointSet.size(); index++) { Map> map = disjointSet.get(index); if (map.containsKey(first_rep)) { map.put(first_rep, first_set); } else if (map.containsKey(second_rep)) { map.remove(second_rep); disjointSet.remove(index); } } return; } public int find_set(int element) { for (int index = 0; index < disjointSet.size(); index++) { Map> map = disjointSet.get(index); Set keySet = map.keySet(); for (Integer key : keySet) { Set set = map.get(key); if (set.contains(element)) { return key; } } } return -1; } public int getNumberofDisjointSets() { return disjointSet.size(); } public static void main(String... arg) { DisjointSets disjointSet = new DisjointSets(); for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { disjointSet.create_set(i); } System.out.println("ELEMENT : REPRESENTATIVE KEY"); for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { System.out.println(i + "\t:\t" + disjointSet.find_set(i)); } disjointSet.union(1, 5); disjointSet.union(5, 3); System.out.println("\nThe Representative keys after performing the union operation\n"); System.out.println("Union of (1 and 5) and (5 and 3) "); System.out.println("ELEMENT : REPRESENTATIVE KEY"); for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { System.out.println(i + "\t:\t" + disjointSet.find_set(i)); } System.out.println("\nThe number of disjoint set : "+ disjointSet.getNumberofDisjointSets()); } } /* ELEMENT : REPRESENTATIVE KEY 1 : 1 2 : 2 3 : 3 4 : 4 5 : 5 The Representative keys after performing the union operation Union of (1 and 5) and (5 and 3) ELEMENT : REPRESENTATIVE KEY 1 : 1 2 : 2 3 : 1 4 : 4 5 : 1 The number of disjoint set : 3
