Problem: There are N persons called Person 1 through Person N.  You are given M facts that "Person A_i and Person B_i are friends." The same fact may be given multiple times.  If X and Y are friends, and Y and Z are friends, then X and Z are also friends. There is no friendship that cannot be derived from the M given facts.  Takahashi the evil wants to divide the N persons into some number of groups so that every person has no friend in his/her group.  At least how many groups does he need to make?

Submission attempts (in order):
n, m = map(int, input().split())
ab = [list(map(int, input().split()))]

friends = [0]*n
group = [-1]*n

for a, b in ab:
    if a > b:
        a, b = b, a
    a -= 1
    b -= 1
    if group[a] == -1 and group[b] == -1:
        group[a] = a
        group[b] = b
        friends[a] += 2
    elif group[a] != -1 and group[b] != -1:
        group[b] = group[a]
        friends[group[a]] += friends[group[b]]
    elif group[a] == -1:
        group[a] = group[b]
        friends[group[b]] += 1
    elif group[b] == -1:
        group[b] = group[a]
        friends[group[a]] += 1

print(max(friends))
