This is my solution for a problem F Is it flower? from a Div 3 codeforces round 863. https://codeforces.net/contest/1811/submission/205309461

I dont realy understand why do i get TLE. I think my bfs algorithm passes through every node of the graph only once which i think should not get TLE. Can someone tell me why is this program too slow?

Your problem is in passing the graph vector in function of BFS as a parameter by value, not by reference. Because of this, it is copied to temporary memory on each call. So, one added character removes TL — https://codeforces.net/contest/1811/submission/205349622.
