"""Returns the closeness vitality for nodes in the graph.
The *closeness vitality* of a node, defined in Section 3.6.2 of [1],
is the change in the sum of distances between all node pairs when
excluding that node.
Parameters
----------
G : NetworkX graph
A strongly-connected graph.
weight : string
The name of the edge attribute used as weight. This is passed
directly to the :func:`~networkx.wiener_index` function.
node : object
If specified, only the closeness vitality for this node will be
returned. Otherwise, a dictionary mapping each node to its
closeness vitality will be returned.
Other parameters
----------------
wiener_index : number
If you have already computed the Wiener index of the graph
`G`, you can provide that value here. Otherwise, it will be
computed for you.
Returns
-------
dictionary or float
If `node` is None, this function returns a dictionary
with nodes as keys and closeness vitality as the
value. Otherwise, it returns only the closeness vitality for the
specified `node`.
The closeness vitality of a node may be negative infinity if
removing that node would disconnect the graph.
Examples
--------
>>> G = nx.cycle_graph(3)
>>> nx.closeness_vitality(G)
{0: 2.0, 1: 2.0, 2: 2.0}
