A simple graph library...<br>
*... A bit like networkx, just without the overhead...*<br> 
*... similar to graph-tool, without the Python 2.7 legacy...*<br>
*... with code that you can explain to your boss...*<br>

Detailed tutorial evolving in the [examples section](https://github.com/root-11/graph-theory/blob/master/examples/readme.md).
---------------------------

Latest features:

| date | description |
|---|---|
| 2022/12/12 | Maintenance release (2022.4.2): To speed up the package import plot3d has been moved to function call. |
| 2022/10/04 | New tutorial: [Learn to solve traffic jams and sudoku's](https://github.com/root-11/graph-theory/blob/master/examples/graphs%20as%20finite%20state%20machines.ipynb) |
| 2022/03/09 | bugfixes to TrafficJamSolver only. |
| 2022/01/04 | new feature: Graph.distance_map, which allows the user to compute<br>the distance from a number of starts and ends as simulated annealing map. |
| 2022/01/04 | new generation of the traffic jam solver.|
| 2021/12/12 | shortest path now accepts keyword `avoids`, which allows the user<br>to declare nodes which cannot be a part of the path.<br>This feature has no impact on performance.|

---------------------------

| have multiple edges between two nodes | `Graph(from_list=[(1,2,3), (1,2,4)]` | Add dummy nodes<br>`[(1,a,3), (a,2,0),`<br>` (1,b,4),(b,2,0)]` | Explicit is better than implicit. |
