Get the girth of a graph, which is the length of the shortest circle in the graph. Loop edges and multiple edges are not considered. If the graph contains no cycles then zero is returned.

get_girth(graph)

Arguments

graph

a graph object of class dgr_graph.

Value

a single numeric value representing the length of the shortest circle in the graph.

Examples

# Create a cycle graph graph <- create_graph() %>% add_cycle(n = 5) # Determine the graph's girth graph %>% get_girth()
#> [1] 5
# Create a full graph and then # get the girth for that create_graph() %>% add_full_graph(n = 10) %>% get_girth()
#> [1] 3
