  <description>
    <p>The <c>digraph</c> module implements a version of labeled
      directed graphs. What makes the graphs implemented here
      non-proper directed graphs is that multiple edges between
      vertices are allowed. However, the customary definition of
      directed graphs will be used in the text that follows.
      </p>
    <p>A <marker id="digraph"></marker><em>directed graph</em> (or just
      "digraph") is a pair (V,&nbsp;E) of a finite set V of 
      <marker id="vertex"></marker><em>vertices</em> and a finite set E of
      <marker id="edge"></marker><em>directed edges</em> (or just "edges"). 
      The set of
      edges E is a subset of V&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;V (the Cartesian
      product of V with itself). In this module, V is allowed to be
      empty; the so obtained unique digraph is called the 
      <marker id="empty_digraph"></marker><em>empty digraph</em>. 
      Both vertices and edges are represented by unique Erlang terms.
      </p>
    <p>Digraphs can be annotated with additional information. Such
      information may be attached to the vertices and to the edges of
      the digraph. A digraph which has been annotated is called a
      <em>labeled digraph</em>, and the information attached to a
      vertex or an edge is called a <marker id="label"></marker>
      <em>label</em>. Labels are Erlang terms.
      </p>
    <p>An edge e&nbsp;=&nbsp;(v,&nbsp;w) is said to 
      <marker id="emanate"></marker><em>emanate</em> from vertex v and 
      to be <marker id="incident"></marker><em>incident</em> on vertex w. 
      The <marker id="out_degree"></marker><em>out-degree</em> of a vertex 
      is the number of edges emanating from that vertex. 
      The <marker id="in_degree"></marker><em>in-degree</em> of a vertex 
      is the number of edges incident on that vertex. 
      If there is an edge emanating from v and incident on w, then w is 
      said to be an <marker id="out_neighbour"></marker>
      <em>out-neighbour</em> of v, and v is said to be an 
      <marker id="in_neighbour"></marker><em>in-neighbour</em> of w. 
      A <marker id="path"></marker><em>path</em> P from v[1] to v[k] 
      in a digraph (V,&nbsp;E) is a non-empty sequence
      v[1],&nbsp;v[2],&nbsp;...,&nbsp;v[k] of vertices in V such that
      there is an edge (v[i],v[i+1]) in E for
      1&nbsp;&lt;=&nbsp;i&nbsp;&lt;&nbsp;k. 
      The <marker id="length"></marker><em>length</em> of the path P is k-1. 
      P is <marker id="simple_path"></marker><em>simple</em> if all 
      vertices are distinct, except that the first and the last vertices
      may be the same. 
      P is a <marker id="cycle"></marker><em>cycle</em> if the length 
      of P is not zero and v[1] = v[k]. 
      A <marker id="loop"></marker><em>loop</em> is a cycle of length one. 
      A <marker id="simple_cycle"></marker><em>simple cycle</em> is a path
      that is both a cycle and simple. 
      An <marker id="acyclic_digraph"></marker><em>acyclic digraph</em>
      is a digraph that has no cycles.
