Attempts to color a graph using `num_colors` colors, where no neighbors of a node can have same color as the node itself and the number of nodes with each color differ by at most 1. `num_colors` must be greater than the maximum degree of `G`. The algorithm is described in [1]_ and has complexity O(num_colors * n**2). Parameters ---------- G : networkX graph The nodes of this graph will be colored. num_colors : number of colors to use This number must be at least one more than the maximum degree of nodes in the graph. Returns ------- A dictionary with keys representing nodes and values representing corresponding coloring. Examples -------- >>> G = nx.cycle_graph(4) >>> nx.coloring.equitable_color(G, num_colors=3) # doctest: +SKIP {0: 2, 1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 0} Raises ------ NetworkXAlgorithmError If `num_colors` is not at least the maximum degree of the graph `G` References ---------- ..
