dijkstra_predecessor_and_distance(G, source)

Compute shorest path length and predecessors on shortest paths in weighted graphs.

Parameters:

G : NetworkX graph

source : node label

Starting node for path

Returns:

pred,distance : dictionaries

Returns two dictionaries representing a list of predecessors of a node and the distance to each node.

Notes

The list of predecessors contains more than one element only when there are more than one shortest paths to the key node.
