Nadmiarowa krawędź i wykrywanie cykli

Czym jest Redundant Connection?

# Example
# n=5, edges = [[1,2],[1,3],[2,3],[2,4],[3,5]]
# Adding edge [2,3] creates cycle 1-2-3-1
# So [2,3] is the redundant connection

# Key insight: process edges one by one with DSU
# The FIRST edge where both endpoints are already connected is the redundant one
print('Tree property: n nodes, n-1 edges, no cycles')
print('Adding 1 edge: n nodes, n edges, exactly 1 cycle')
print('DSU approach: find the edge that connects already-connected nodes')

        parent[py] = px
        if rank[px] == rank[py]: rank[px] += 1
