Highlights#

This release is the result of X of work with over X pull requests by X contributors. Highlights include:

Improvements#

  • [#6654] Function cycle_basis switched from using Python sets to dicts so the results are now deterministic (not dependent on order reported by a set).

  • [#6759] Function write_network_text has new argument vertical_chains which, if true, reduces horizontal space by rendering chains of nodes vertically.

  • [#6892] The shortest path function goldberg_radzik handles a zero-weight-cycle correctly instead of raising an exception as a negative weight cycle.

API Changes#

  • [#6651] In is_semiconnected, the keyword argument topo_order has been removed. That argument resulted in silently incorrect results more often than not.

  • [#6887] A new default argument is added to get_node_attributes and get_edge_attributes. The default keyword can be used to set a default value if the attribute is missing from a node/edge.

  • [#6908] Rename join as join_trees in algorithms.tree.operations.py.

Deprecations#

  • [#6758] Remove random_tree and replace with the new random_labeled_tree. In the newly named version, the argument create_using is no longer available and seed is now keyword-only.

  • [#5925] The sort_neighbors input argument of nx.generic_bfs_edges is deprecated and will be removed in v3.4. Use neighbors to sort the nodes if desired.

  • [#6785] Deprecate MultiDiGraph_EdgeKey subclass used in Edmonds class. Deprecate Edmonds class for computing minimum and maximum branchings and arborescences (use minimum_branching, minimal_branching, maximum_branching, minimum_arborescence and maximum_arborescence directly).

  • [#6841] Deprecate the normalized keyword of the s_metric function. Ignore value of normalized for future compatibility.
