133. Clone Graph

-
https://leetcode.com/problems/clone-graph/

Given a reference of a node in a connected undirected graph.
Return a deep copy (clone) of the graph.
Each node in the graph contains a val (int) and a list (List[Node]) of its neighbors.
class Node {
    public int val;
    public List<Node> neighbors;
}

Test case format:
For simplicity sake, each node's value is the same as the node's index (1-indexed). For example, the first node with val = 1, the second node with val = 2, and so on. The graph is represented in the test case using an adjacency list.
Adjacency list is a collection of unordered lists used to represent a finite graph. Each list describes the set of neighbors of a node in the graph.
The given node will always be the first node with val = 1. You must return the copy of the given node as a reference to the cloned graph.

Example 1:

Input: adjList = [[2,4],[1,3],[2,4],[1,3]]
Output: [[2,4],[1,3],[2,4],[1,3]]
Explanation: There are 4 nodes in the graph.
1st node (val = 1)'s neighbors are 2nd node (val = 2) and 4th node (val = 4).
2nd node (val = 2)'s neighbors are 1st node (val = 1) and 3rd node (val = 3).
3rd node (val = 3)'s neighbors are 2nd node (val = 2) and 4th node (val = 4).
4th node (val = 4)'s neighbors are 1st node (val = 1) and 3rd node (val = 3).
Example 2:

Input: adjList = [[]]
Output: [[]]
Explanation: Note that the input contains one empty list. The graph consists of only one node with val = 1 and it does not have any neighbors.
Example 3:
Input: adjList = []
Output: []
Explanation: This an empty graph, it does not have any nodes.
Example 4:

Input: adjList = [[2],[1]]
Output: [[2],[1]]

Constraints:
  • 1 <= Node.val <= 100
  • Node.val is unique for each node.
  • Number of Nodes will not exceed 100.
  • There is no repeated edges and no self-loops in the graph.
  • The Graph is connected and all nodes can be visited starting from the given node.

Intuition
DFS - Visit each node only once
Map of node, cloned node

Terminate if clone is already built
if (map.containsKey(node))
    return;

map.put(node, new Node(node.val))

for (Node neighbor: node.neighbors)
    dfs(neighbor, map)

    // Post order DFS => Connect neighbor nodes after their exploration is done => Mark visited / entry in Map on entry.. not before DFS
    clone.neighbors.add(map.get(neighbor))

Time - O(V + E)
Space - O(V)

DFS - Faster
