Boruvka’s algorithm.Develop an implementation of Boruvka’s algorithm: Build an MST by adding edges to a growing forest of trees, as in Kruskal’s algorithm, but in stages. At each stage, find the minimum-weight edge that connects each tree to a different one, then add all such edges to the MST. Assume that the edge weights are all different, to avoid cycles. Hint: Maintain a vertex-indexed array to identify the edge that connects each tree to its nearest neighbor, and use the union-find data structure.
