It uses the MakeSet, Find, and Union functions of a disjoint-set data structure. MakeSet(u) removes u to a singleton set, Find(u) returns the standard representative of the set containing u, and Union(u,v) merges the set containing u with the set containing v. TarjanOLCA(r) is first called on the root r.
This specialized type of forest performs union and find operations in near-constant amortized time. For a sequence of m addition, union, or find operations on a disjoint-set forest with n nodes, the total time required is O(mα(n)), where α(n) is the extremely slow-growing inverse Ackermann function. Although disjoint-set forests do not ...
C and C++ also have language support for one particular tagged union: the possibly-null pointer. This may be compared to the option type in ML or the Maybe type in Haskell, and can be seen as a tagged pointer: a tagged union (with an encoded tag) of two types: Valid pointers,
An efficient implementation using a disjoint-set data structure can perform each union and find operation on two sets in nearly constant amortized time (specifically, (()) time; () < for any plausible value of ), so the running time of this algorithm is essentially proportional to the number of walls available to the maze.

Given a set of elements {1, 2, …, n} (henceforth referred to as the universe, specifying all possible elements under consideration) and a collection, referred to as S, of a given m subsets whose union equals the universe, the set cover problem is to identify a smallest sub-collection of S whose union equals the universe. For example, consider ...

bool is_negative (float x) {union {int i; float d;} my_union; my_union. d = x; return my_union. i < 0;} Accessing my_union.i after most recently writing to the other member, my_union.d , is an allowed form of type-punning in C, [ 6 ] provided that the member read is not larger than the one whose value was set (otherwise the read has unspecified ...
