networkx.generators.gnm_random_graph(n, m, seed=None, directed=False)[source]¶

Returns a G_{n,m} random graph.

In the G_{n,m} model, a graph is chosen uniformly at random from the set of all graphs with n nodes and m edges.

This algorithm should be faster than dense_gnm_random_graph() for sparse graphs.

Parameters:

n : int

The number of nodes.

m : int

The number of edges.

seed : int, optional

Seed for random number generator (default=None).

directed : bool, optional (default=False)

If True return a directed graph
