Calling Sequence

RandomDigraph(V, p, options)

RandomDigraph(V, m, options)

RandomDigraph(n, p, options)

RandomDigraph(n, m, options)

Parameters

V

-

list of vertices

n

-

positive integer

p

-

numerical value in the closed range [0.0,1.0]

m

-

non-negative integer

options

-

(optional) equation(s) of the form option=value where option is one of seed or weights

Options

• 

seed = integer or none

  

Seed for the random number generator. When an integer is specified, this is equivalent to calling randomize(seed).

• 

weights = range or function

  

If the option weights=m..n is specified, where  are integers, the graph returned is a weighted graph with edge weights chosen from [m,n] uniformly at random.  The weight matrix W in the graph has datatype=integer, and if the edge from vertex i to j is not in the graph then W[i,j] = 0.

  

If the option weights=x..y where  are floating-point numbers is specified, the graph returned is a weighted graph with numerical edge weights chosen from [x,y] uniformly at random.  The weight matrix W in the graph has datatype=float[8], that is, double precision floats (16 decimal digits), and if the edge from vertex i to j is not in the graph then W[i,j] = 0.0.

  

If the option weights=f where f is a function (a Maple procedure) that returns a number (integer, rational, or decimal number), then f is used to generate the edge weights.  The weight matrix W in the graph has datatype=anything, and if the edge from vertex i to j is not in the graph then W[i,j] = 0.

Description

• 

RandomDigraph(n,m) creates a directed unweighted graph on n vertices and m edges, where the m edges are chosen uniformly at random.

• 

RandomDigraph(n,p) creates a directed unweighted graph on n vertices where each possible edge is present with probability p.

• 

If the first input is a positive integer n, then the vertices are labeled 1,2,...,n.  Alternatively you may specify the vertex labels in a list.

• 

The random number generator used can be seeded with the seed option or by using the randomize function.
