+/**
+ * Kruskal's Algorithm for finding Minimum Spanning Tree (MST)
+ * 
+ * Kruskal's algorithm is a greedy algorithm that finds a minimum spanning tree
+ * for a connected weighted graph. It works by sorting all edges by weight and
+ * adding them one by one to the MST if they don't form a cycle.
+ * 
+ * Time Complexity: O(E log E) where E is the number of edges
+ * Space Complexity: O(V + E) where V is the number of vertices
