5.5.9. networkx.generators.random_graphs.connected_watts_strogatz_graph

networkx.generators.random_graphs.connected_watts_strogatz_graph(n, k, p, tries=100, seed=None)[source]

Returns a connected Watts–Strogatz small-world graph.

Attempts to generate a connected graph by repeated generation of Watts–Strogatz small-world graphs. An exception is raised if the maximum number of tries is exceeded.

Parameters:

n : int

The number of nodes

k : int

Each node is joined with its k nearest neighbors in a ring topology.

p : float

The probability of rewiring each edge

tries : int

Number of attempts to generate a connected graph.

seed : int, optional

The seed for random number generator.
