Bipartite Graph - Google Top Interview Questions


Problem Statement :


Given an undirected graph represented as an adjacency list, return whether the graph is bipartite.

Constraints

n, m ≤ 250 where n and m are the number of rows and columns in graph

Example 1

Input

graph = [
    [1],
    [0]
]

Output

True

Explanation

This is bipartite since the node 1 can belong in set A and node 2 can belong in set B. Then the edges 0 -
> 1 and 1 -> 0 has one node in A and one node in B



Example 2

Input

Visualize

graph = [

    [2, 3],

    [2, 3],

    [0, 1],

    [0, 1]

]

Output

True

Explanation

0 and 1 can belong in set A and 2 and 3 can belong in set B.



Example 3

Input




graph = [

    [1, 2, 3],

    [0, 2],

    [0, 1, 3],

    [0, 2]

]

Output

False

Explanation

No matter how the nodes are partitioned, an edge will belong to the same set.

                        Solution in C++ :

bool isbipartite(vector<vector<int>> &graph, int src, vector<int> &color) {
    for (int i = 0; i < graph[src].size(); i++) {
        if (color[graph[src][i]] == -1) {

        } else if (color[graph[src][i]] == color[src])
            return false;
    }
    return true;
}
bool solve(vector<vector<int>> &graph) {
    // DFS by coloring nodes.
    // Color root by R and subsequent by Blue if we found neighbour with same color it is not BPG.
