Finds the connected components in an undirected graph: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connected_component_(graph_theory)

If you have a fixed graph where the node are dense integers, use GetConnectedComponents(): it's very fast and uses little memory.

If you have a more dynamic scenario where you want to incrementally add nodes or edges and query the connectivity between them, use the [Dense]ConnectedComponentsFinder class, which uses the union-find algorithm aka disjoint sets: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disjoint-set_data_structure.
