# Module Union_find

    module Union_find: sig .. end

Imperative data structure for representing disjoint sets.

Union find is used to implement an equivalence relation on objects, where the equivalence relation can dynamically be coarsened by "union"ing two equivalence classes together.

All of the operations are effectively (amortized) constant time.
See also wikipedia.

This implementation is not thread-safe.

    type 'a t

`type 'a t` is the type of objects, where each object is part of an equivalence class that is associated with a single value of type `'a`.

    val create : 'a -> 'a t

`create v` returns a new object in its own equivalence class that has value `v`.

    val get : 'a t -> 'a

`get t` returns the value of the class of `t`.

    val set : 'a t -> 'a -> unit

`set t v` sets the value of the class of `t` to `v`.

    val same_class : 'a t -> 'a t -> bool

`same_class t1 t2` returns true iff `t1` and `t2` are in the same equivalence class.

    val union : 'a t -> 'a t -> unit

`union t1 t2` makes the class of `t1` and the class of `t2` be the same (if they are already equal, then nothing changes). The value of the combined class is the value of `t1` or `t2`; it is unspecified which. After `union t1 t2`, it will always be the case that `same_class t1 t2`.
