Important: The networks package has been deprecated.  Use the superseding command GraphTheory[Diameter] instead.

This routine uses allpairs() to compute the minimum distance between any two vertices.

The result is returned as a number indicating the diameter, or infinity if the graph is disconnected.

Edge weights are assumed to be lengths or distances. Thus edge weights must be non-negative.

Undirected edges are assumed to be bidirectional.

This routine is normally loaded via the command with(networks) but may also be referenced using the full name networks[diameter](...).
