PlanarEmbedding.add_edge#

PlanarEmbedding.add_edge(u_of_edge, v_of_edge, **attr)#

Add an edge between u and v.

The nodes u and v will be automatically added if they are not already in the graph.

Edge attributes can be specified with keywords or by directly accessing the edge’s attribute dictionary. See examples below.

Parameters:

u_of_edge, v_of_edgenodes: Nodes can be, for example, strings or numbers. Nodes must be hashable (and not None) Python objects.
attrkeyword arguments, optional: Edge data (or labels or objects) can be assigned using keyword arguments.

Notes

Adding an edge that already exists updates the edge data.

Many NetworkX algorithms designed for weighted graphs use an edge attribute (by default weight) to hold a numerical value.

Examples

The following all add the edge e=(1, 2) to graph G:

>>> G = nx.Graph()  # or DiGraph, MultiGraph, MultiDiGraph, etc
>>> e = (1, 2)
>>> G.add_edge(1, 2)  # explicit two-node form
>>> G.add_edge(*e)  # single edge as tuple of two nodes
>>> G.add_edges_from([(1, 2)])  # add edges from iterable container

Associate data to edges using keywords:

>>> G.add_edge(1, 2, weight=3)
>>> G.add_edge(1, 3, weight=7, capacity=15, length=342.7)

For non-string attribute keys, use subscript notation.

>>> G.add_edge(1, 2)
>>> G[1][2].update({0: 5})
>>> G.edges[1, 2].update({0: 5})
