SimpleWeightedGraphs
Documentation for SimpleWeightedGraphs.
Quick start
This package defines two new graph types: SimpleWeightedGraph
and SimpleWeightedDiGraph
. See the tutorial to discover what you can do with them. Also refer to the Graphs.jl package for more complex algorithms.
Caveats
Because SimpleWeighted(Di)Graph
s are stored in sparse matrices, they have two major flaws:
Iteratively adding or removing vertices or edges is not very efficient. Building the graph in one go from a list of edge sources, destinations and weights is much faster.
Zero-weight edges are discarded by
add_edge!
. A possible workaround is to set a very small weight instead.
In additions, self-loops are not supported.
Alternatives
If your graphs have more than just edge weights to store, take a look at MetaGraphsNext.jl or MetaGraphs.jl for more complex formats.
