add_nodes_from

MultiGraph.add_nodes_from(nodes, **attr)

Add multiple nodes.

Parameters:

• nodes (iterable container) – A container of nodes (list, dict, set, etc.). OR A container of (node, attribute dict) tuples. Node attributes are updated using the attribute dict.
• attr (keyword arguments, optional (default= no attributes)) – Update attributes for all nodes in nodes. Node attributes specified in nodes as a tuple take precedence over attributes specified generally.

add_node()

Examples

>>> G = nx.Graph()   # or DiGraph, MultiGraph, MultiDiGraph, etc
>>> G.add_nodes_from('Hello')
>>> K3 = nx.Graph([(0,1),(1,2),(2,0)])
>>> G.add_nodes_from(K3)
>>> sorted(G.nodes(),key=str)
[0, 1, 2, 'H', 'e', 'l', 'o']

Use keywords to update specific node attributes for every node.

>>> G.add_nodes_from([1,2], size=10)
>>> G.add_nodes_from([3,4], weight=0.4)

Use (node, attrdict) tuples to update attributes for specific nodes.

>>> G.add_nodes_from([(1,dict(size=11)), (2,{'color':'blue'})])
>>> G.node[1]['size']
11
>>> H = nx.Graph()
>>> H.add_nodes_from(G.nodes(data=True))
>>> H.node[1]['size']
11
