Learning objectives
- Explain Union by Rank and Path Compression: Near-
alpha(n)Amortized in the language of the current curriculum, not just the source book. - Apply Union by Rank and Path Compression: Near-
alpha(n)Amortized to one concrete learner task or example inside this semester. - Use
competitive-programming,introduction-to-algorithms-clrsas a selective source of truth when the learner-facing explanation is not enough.
Prerequisites
- The earlier concept pages and practice tasks in the current module.
