NetworkX is a Python library for studying graphs and networks. NetworkX is free software released under the BSD-new license.

Features[edit]

Suitability[edit]

NetworkX is suitable for operation on large real-world graphs: e.g., graphs in excess of 10 million nodes and 100 million edges.[clarification needed][4] Due to its dependence on a pure-Python "dictionary of dictionary" data structure, NetworkX is a reasonably efficient, very scalable, highly portable framework for network and social network analysis.[5]

Integration[edit]

NetworkX is integrated into SageMath.[6]
