  2. Disjoint-set data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint-set_data_structure

    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 ...

  3. Tarjan's off-line lowest common ancestors algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarjan's_off-line_lowest...

    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.

  4. Tagged union - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagged_union

    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,

  5. Symmetric difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_difference

    In mathematics, the symmetric difference of two sets, also known as the disjunctive union and set sum, is the set of elements which are in either of the sets, but not in their intersection. For example, the symmetric difference of the sets { 1 , 2 , 3 } {\displaystyle \{1,2,3\}} and { 3 , 4 } {\displaystyle \{3,4\}} is { 1 , 2 , 4 ...

  6. Kruskal's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal's_algorithm

    Kruskal's algorithm [1] finds a minimum spanning forest of an undirected edge-weighted graph.If the graph is connected, it finds a minimum spanning tree.It is a greedy algorithm that in each step adds to the forest the lowest-weight edge that will not form a cycle. [2]

  7. Maze generation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze_generation_algorithm

    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.

  8. Type punning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_punning

    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 ...
