NAME

Graph::Maker::Random - Creates a random graph (using Erdos Renyi or with a specified number of edges)

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

Creates a random graph with N nodes and with exactly M edges or connects random edges with probability PR. A random graph has N nodes and M random edges, OR for every pair of nodes adds an edge with probability PR (Erdos-Renyi graph). If the graph is directed then edges are added in both directions to create an undirected graph.

	use strict;
	use warnings;
        use Graph;
	use Graph::Maker;
	use Graph::Maker::Random;

	my $g = new Graph::Maker('random', N => 10, M => 2, undirected => 1);
	my $g = new Graph::Maker('random', N => 100, PR => .01, undirected => 1);
	# work with the graph

FUNCTIONS

new %params

Creates a random graph with N nodes either connecting edges with the given probability (PR) or with the specified number of edges (M); The recognized parameters are graph_maker, N, M, and PR any others are passed onto Graph's constructor. If N is not given it defaults to 0. If PR is not given it defaults to 0. If PR is 1 or M is bigger than N*(N-2)/2 then returns a Complete Graph. If M is not given it defaults to 0. If PR and M are both nonzero ignores M. If graph_maker is specified it will be called to create the Graph class as desired (for example if you have a subclass of Graph), this defaults to create a Graph with the parameters specified.
