is_matching
(G, matching)[source]¶ Decides whether the given set or dictionary represents a valid matching in
G
.A matching in a graph is a set of edges in which no two distinct edges share a common endpoint.
- Parameters
G (NetworkX graph)
matching (dict or set) – A dictionary or set representing a matching. If a dictionary, it must have
matching[u] == v
andmatching[v] == u
for each edge(u, v)
in the matching. If a set, it must have elements of the form(u, v)
, where(u, v)
is an edge in the matching.
- Returns
Whether the given set or dictionary represents a valid matching in the graph.
- Return type
