VertexOutComponent

VertexOutComponent[g,{v1,v2,…}]

gives the vertices in the graph g that have a directed path from at least one of v1, v2, ….

VertexOutComponent[g,{v1,v2,…},k]

gives the vertices with a directed path from at least one of v1, v2, … of at most length k.

VertexOutComponent[g,{v1,v2,…},{k}]

gives the vertices at length exactly k.

VertexOutComponent[{vw,…},…]

uses rules vw to specify the graph g.
