/**
 * @brief Check whether a given graph is bipartite or not
 * @details
 * A bipartite graph is the one whose nodes can be divided into two 
 * disjoint sets in such a way that the nodes in a set are not 
 * connected to each other at all, i.e. no intra-set connections. 
 * The only connections that exist are that of inter-set, 
 * i.e. the nodes from one set are connected to a subset of nodes 
 * in the other set.
 * In this implementation, using a graph in the form of adjacency 
 * list, check whether the given graph is a bipartite or not.
 *
