PT07X - Vertex Cover
You are given an unweighted, undirected tree. Write a program to find a vertex set of minimum size in this tree such that each edge has as least one of its end-points in that set.
Input
The first line of the input file contains one integer N --- number of nodes in the tree (0 < N <= 100000). Next N-1 lines contain N-1 edges of that tree --- Each line contains a pair (u, v) means there is an edge between node u and node v (1 <= u,v <= N).
Output
Print number of nodes in the satisfied vertex set on one line.
Example 1
Input: 3 1 2 1 3 Output: 1 Explanation: The set can be {1}
Example 2
Input: 3 1 2 2 3 Output: 1 Explanation: The set can be {2}

@osmanay2 Answer should be 5 in your test case. My solution got accepted with that. |

just solve it greedy: take the neighbour of a leaf and remove it. |
