Hello, Codeforces!
I have to find MST with this algorithm, but got WA. Can you please help me? I would really appreciate that.
My submission: https://pastebin.com/P4nGmhRM Problem: https://codeforces.com/gym/100088/attachments It's in russian, but the idea is:
There are n cities. The mayor of city wants to build a roads, so you were able to visit one city from any another. And there are given n (x; y) coordinates, and you have to find minimum spanning tree. Obviously, in graph i and j (1 <= i,j <= n) are vertices, and the weight of edge is (x[i]-x[j])^2 + (y[i]-y[j])^2.
Edit the blog with the problem link and, if possible, your submission.
Sure, sorry about that!
Ok, are you sure that you are solving the right problem? I don't see you using the formula (x[i]-x[j])^2 + (y[i]-y[j])^2 anywhere...
Have you ever solved any minimum spanning tree problem before? If not, I recommend that you try this problem first: https://cses.fi/problemset/task/1675
For your problem, you only need to:
Create a graph G with N nodes.
Read X[U] and Y[U] for each node U from 0 to N — 1.
For each node U, for each other node V create an edge between U and V in G with a weight of square root of (X[U]-X[V])^2 + (Y[U]-Y[V])^2
Run Prim's algorithm
Furthermore, you need to do input/output from files. One (ugly) way to do it is to add this lines:
