single_source_dijkstra_path_length
(G, source, cutoff=None, weight='weight')[source]¶ Find shortest weighted path lengths in G from a source node.
Compute the shortest path length between source and all other reachable nodes for a weighted graph.
Parameters: G (NetworkX graph)
source (node label) – Starting node for path
cutoff (integer or float, optional) – Depth to stop the search. Only return paths with length <= cutoff.
weight (string or function) – If this is a string, then edge weights will be accessed via the edge attribute with this key (that is, the weight of the edge joining
u
tov
will beG.edges[u, v][weight]
). If no such edge attribute exists, the weight of the edge is assumed to be one.If this is a function, the weight of an edge is the value returned by the function. The function must accept exactly three positional arguments: the two endpoints of an edge and the dictionary of edge attributes for that edge. The function must return a number.
Returns: length – Dict keyed by node to shortest path length from source.
Return type: Raises: NodeNotFound
– Ifsource
is not inG
.Examples
>>> G = nx.path_graph(5) >>> length = nx.single_source_dijkstra_path_length(G, 0) >>> length[4] 4 >>> for node in [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]: ... print('{}: {}'.format(node, length[node])) 0: 0 1: 1 2: 2 3: 3 4: 4
Notes
Edge weight attributes must be numerical. Distances are calculated as sums of weighted edges traversed.
The weight function can be used to hide edges by returning None. So
weight = lambda u, v, d: 1 if d['color']=="red" else None
will find the shortest red path.
