Number Of Ways To Reconstruct A Tree

You are given an array pairs, where pairs[i] = [xi, yi], and:

  • There are no duplicates.
  • xi < yi

Let ways be the number of rooted trees that satisfy the following conditions:

  • The tree consists of nodes whose values appeared in pairs.
  • A pair [xi, yi] exists in pairs if and only if xi is an ancestor of yi or yi is an ancestor of xi.
  • Note: the tree does not have to be a binary tree.

Two ways are considered to be different if there is at least one node that has different parents in both ways.

Return:

  • 0 if ways == 0
  • 1 if ways == 1
  • 2 if ways > 1

A rooted tree is a tree that has a single root node, and all edges are oriented to be outgoing from the root.

An ancestor of a node is any node on the path from the root to that node, excluding the node itself. The root has no ancestors.

Example 1
Inputpairs = [[1,2],[2,3]]
Output1
There is exactly one valid rooted tree.
Example 2
Inputpairs = [[1,2],[2,3],[1,3]]
Output2
There are multiple valid rooted trees.

Constraints

  • 1 <= pairs.length <= 10^5
  • 1 <= xi < yi <= 500
  • The elements in pairs are unique.
