networkx.algorithms.dag.antichains¶
- antichains(G, topo_order=None)[source]¶
Generates antichains from a directed acyclic graph (DAG).
An antichain is a subset of a partially ordered set such that any two elements in the subset are incomparable.
- Parameters
- GNetworkX DiGraph
A directed acyclic graph (DAG)
- topo_order: list or tuple, optional
A topological order for G (if None, the function will compute one)
- Returns
- generator object
- Raises
- NetworkXNotImplemented
If
G
is not directed- NetworkXUnfeasible
If
G
contains a cycle
