Introduction to graph data

Broadly speaking, graphs represent a certain way we describe and capture relationships in data. Graphs are a particular kind of data structure that is nonlinear and abstract. And since graphs are abstract objects, a concrete representation needs to be defined so the graphs can be operated on. Furthermore, graphs can be defined to have certain properties that may require different representations. Figure 18.1 summarizes the common types of graphs, which we will discuss in more detail in the following subsections:

Figure 18.1: Common types of graphs

Undirected graphs

An undirected graph consists of nodes (in graph theory also often called vertices) that are connected via edges where the order of the nodes and their connection does not matter. Figure 18.2 sketches two typical examples of undirected graphs, a friend graph, and a graph of a chemical molecule consisting of atoms connected through chemical bonds (we will be discussing such molecular...
