PlanarGraph
PlanarGraph[{e1,e2,…}]
yields a planar graph with edges ej.
PlanarGraph[{v1,v2,…},{e1,e2,…}]
yields a planar graph with vertices vi and edges ej.
PlanarGraph[{…,wi[vi],…},{…,wj[ej],…}]
yields a planar graph with vertex and edge properties defined by the symbolic wrappers wk.
PlanarGraph[{vivj,…}]
uses rules vivj to specify a planar graph.
Details and Options
- PlanarGraph generates a Graph object.
- A graph is planar if it can be drawn in the plane without edge crossings.
- PlanarGraph displays the graph using a planar embedding if possible.
- PlanarGraph supports the same vertices, edges, and wrappers as Graph.
- PlanarGraph takes the same options as Graph, with GraphLayout methods restricted to "PlanarEmbedding" and "TutteEmbedding".
