gnc_graph
(n, create_using=None, seed=None)[source]¶ Returns the growing network with copying (GNC) digraph with
n
nodes.The GNC graph is built by adding nodes one at a time with a link to one previously added node (chosen uniformly at random) and to all of that node’s successors.
Parameters: - n (int) – The number of nodes for the generated graph.
- create_using (NetworkX graph constructor, optional (default DiGraph)) – Graph type to create. If graph instance, then cleared before populated.
- seed (integer, random_state, or None (default)) – Indicator of random number generation state. See Randomness.
