If an employee-boss relationship is described by an undirected edge, it suggests that the employee can fire the boss as easily as the other way around. While possibly good for workplace morale, such arrangements aren't the norm. NetworkX supports directed edges through the DiGraph (directed graph) class.
Many of the operations already described for the Graph class translate seamlessly to the DiGraph class. Iterating through nodes and edges, accessing attributes, and visualization are all exactly the same. But there are a few differences. This section will describe the most important of these differences.
This section will use another social...
