Friends Connection

In a social network, each person is represented as a node and friendships as edges. You need to determine how many distinct friend groups exist in the network. A friend group is defined as a connected component where every person is reachable from every other person in the group. Input format: - The first line contains two integers, n (1 ≤ n ≤ 100) for the number of people and m (0 ≤ m ≤ 1000) for the number of friendships. - The next m lines contain two integers a and b, indicating a friendship between person a and person b. Output format: - A single integer representing the number of distinct friend groups. Example: Input: 4 3 1 2 2 3 3 4 Output: 1
