Use the UNION/FIND algorithm to implement a solution to the following problem. Given a set of points represented by their xy-coordinates, assign the points to clusters. Any two points are defined to be in the same cluster if they are within a specified distance d of each other. For the purpose of this problem, clustering is an equivalence relationship. In other words, points A, B, and C are defined to be in the same cluster if the distance between A and B is less than d and the distance between A and C is also less than d, even if the distance between B and C is greater than.To solve the problem, compute the distance between each pair of points, using the equivalence processing algorithm to merge clusters whenever two points are within the specified distance. What is the asymptotic complexity of this algorithm? Where is the bottleneck in processing?
