Name

graph_diameter — diameter of a graph

Calling Sequence

[d,p] = graph_diameter(g)

Parameters

g

a graph_data_structure.

d

integer

p

integer row vector

Description

graph_diameter computes the diameter of the graph g i.e. the largest shortest path between two nodes. The length of the arcs are supposed to be integer (and the default value is 1). The output is the value d of the length of the diameter and p is the corresponding path.

Examples


ta=[1 1 2 2 2 3 4 5 5 7 8 8 9 10 10 10 10 11 12 13 13 14 15 16 16 17 17];
he=[2 10 3 5 7 4 2 4 6 8 6 9 7 7 11 13 15 12 13  9 14 11 16 1 17 14 15];
g=make_graph('foo',0,17,ta,he);
g.nodes.graphics.x=[283 163 63 57 164 164 273 271 339 384 504 513 439 623 631 757 642]/2;
g.nodes.graphics.y=[59 133 223 318 227 319 221 324 432 141 209 319 428 443 187 151 301]/2;
