BiConnectedComponentsAlgo (JGAlgo - Parent 0.4.0 API)

```
public interface BiConnectedComponentsAlgo
```
An algorithm that compute the bi-connected components of a graph.
Given a graph \(G=(V,E)\) a bi-connected component \(B \subseteq V\) is a maximal set of connected vertices that remain connected even after removing any single vertex of \(B\). In particular, an isolated vertex is considered a bi-connected component, along with an isolated pair of vertices connected by a single edge. This algorithm compute all the maximal bi-connected components of the graph. Note that the bi-connected components are not disjoint, namely a single vertex can be included in multiple bi-connected components, differing from the regular connected components of a graph.
For a general k-vertex connected components, see KVertexConnectedComponentsAlgo.
Use newInstance() to get a default implementation of this interface.

    Compute all maximal bi-connected components of a graph.
    If an IntGraph is passed as an argument BiConnectedComponentsAlgo.IResult is returned.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    V - the vertices type
    
    E - the edges type
    
    Parameters:
    
    g - a graph
    
    Returns:
    
    a result object containing the bi-connected components of the graph
  - newInstance
```
static BiConnectedComponentsAlgo newInstance()
```
    Create a new bi-connected components algorithm object.
    This is the recommended way to instantiate a new BiConnectedComponentsAlgo object.
    
    Returns:
    
    a default implementation of BiConnectedComponentsAlgo
