Summary

All networks are composed of nodes and edges, but different systems require nodes and edges with different attributes. This chapter introduced the Graph class for undirected networks, and the DiGraph class for directed networks, as well as the MultiGraph and MultiDiGraph classes. In addition, this chapter demonstrated how to attach data to nodes and edges using attributes. Now you know how to access the basic properties of a network in NetworkX using these classes, but where do those networks come from? The next chapter describes various techniques for creating networks from data.
