single_target_shortest_path_length

single_target_shortest_path_length(G, target, cutoff=None)

Compute the shortest path lengths to target from all reachable nodes.

Parameters

GNetworkX graph

targetnode

Target node for path

cutoffinteger, optional

Depth to stop the search. Only paths of length <= cutoff are returned.

Returns

lengthsiterator

>>> G = nx.path_graph(5, create_using=nx.DiGraph())
>>> length = dict(nx.single_target_shortest_path_length(G, 4))
>>> length[0]
4
>>> for node in range(5):
...     print(f"{node}: {length[node]}")
