TopologicalSort[g] gives a permutation of the vertices of the directed acyclic graph g such that an edge (i, j) implies that vertex i appears before vertex j.

Range[i_max] generates the list {1, 2, ..., i_max}. Range[i_min, i_max] generates the list {i_min, ..., i_max}. Range[i_min, i_max, di] uses step di.

Offset[{dx, dy}, position] gives the position of a graphical object obtained by starting at the specified position and then moving by absolute offset {dx, dy}.

FromCycles[{c_1, c_2, ...}] gives the permutation that has the given cycle structure.

ShowLegend[graphics, legend_1, legend_2, ...] places the legend_1, legend_2, ..., in the given graphic graphics.
