Layout
******

Node positioning algorithms for graph drawing.

For `random_layout()` the possible resulting shape
is a square of side [0, scale] (default: [0, 1])
Changing `center` shifts the layout by that amount.

For the other layout routines, the extent is
[center - scale, center + scale] (default: [-1, 1]).

Warning: Most layout routines have only been tested in 2-dimensions.
