547. Number of Provinces

1. Description

There are n cities. Some of them are connected, while some are not. If city a is connected directly with city b, and city b is connected directly with city c, then city a is connected indirectly with city c.
A province is a group of directly or indirectly connected cities and no other cities outside of the group.
You are given an n x n matrix isConnected where isConnected[i][j] = 1 if the ith city and the jth city are directly connected, and isConnected[i][j] = 0 otherwise.
Return the total number of provinces.

2. Example

Example 1:

Input: isConnected = [[1,1,0],[1,1,0],[0,0,1]]
Output: 2

Example 2:

Input: isConnected = [[1,0,0],[0,1,0],[0,0,1]]
Output: 3

3. Constraints

  • 1 <= n <= 200
  • n == isConnected.length
  • n == isConnected[i].length
  • isConnected[i][j] is 1 or 0.
  • isConnected[i][i] == 1
  • isConnected[i][j] == isConnected[j][i]

4. Solutions

n = isConnected.size()
Time complexity: O($n^2$)
Space complexity: O(n)

// Breadth-First Search and Depth-First Search are swappable
class Solution {
public:
    int findCircleNum(const vector<vector<int>> &isConnected) {
        vector<bool> visited(isConnected.size());
        int result = 0;
        queue<int> current_province;
        for (int i = 0; i < isConnected.size(); ++i) {
            if (!visited[i]) {
                ++result;
                visited[i] = true;
                current_province.push(i);

                while (!current_province.empty()) {
                    int index = current_province.front();
                    current_province.pop();
                    for (int j = 0; j < isConnected[index].size(); ++j) {
                        if (!visited[j] && isConnected[index][j] == 1) {
                            visited[j] = true;
                            current_province.push(j);
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        return result;
    }
