Random Tree Generator Using Graph-tool

  • Share this:

Code introduction


This function uses the Graph-tool library to generate a random tree with a specified number of nodes. It first creates an empty graph, then adds the specified number of nodes, and uses the random_tree function to generate the random tree.


Technology Stack : Graph-tool, Numpy

Code Type : Graph-tool based function

Code Difficulty : Intermediate
