### API changes

#### Returning dictionaries

Several of the algorithms and the degree() method now return dictionaries keyed by node instead of lists. In some cases there was a with_labels keyword which is no longer necessary. For example,

    >>> G=nx.Graph()
    >>> G.add_edge('a','b')
    >>> G.degree()
    {'a': 1, 'b': 1}

Asking for the degree of a single node still returns a single number

    >>> G.degree('a')
    1

The following now return dictionaries by default (instead of lists) and the with_labels keyword has been removed:

> - `Graph.degree()`, `MultiGraph.degree()`, `DiGraph.degree()`, `DiGraph.in_degree()`, `DiGraph.out_degree()`, `MultiDiGraph.degree()`, `MultiDiGraph.in_degree()`, `MultiDiGraph.out_degree()`.

> - `clustering()`, `triangles()`

> - `node_clique_number()`, `number_of_cliques()`, `cliques_containing_node()`

> - `eccentricity()`

The following now return dictionaries by default (instead of lists)

> - `pagerank()`

> - `hits()`

#### Adding nodes

`add_nodes_from` now accepts `(node, attrdict)` two-tuples

    >>> G = nx.Graph()
    >>> G.add_nodes_from([(1, {'color': 'red'})])

### Examples

> - Mayvi2 drawing

> - Blockmodel

> - Sampson’s monastery

> - Ego graph

### Bug fixes

> - Support graph attributes with union, intersection, and other graph operations

> - Improve subgraph speed (and related algorithms such as connected_components_subgraphs())

> - Handle multigraphs in more operators (e.g. union)

> - Handle double-quoted labels with pydot

> - Normalize betweenness_centrality for undirected graphs correctly

> - Normalize eigenvector_centrality by l2 norm

> - `read_gml()` now returns multigraphs

### Documentation

> - Reformat menu, minor changes to Readme, better stylesheet

### Bug fixes

> - use create_using= instead of result= keywords for graph types in all cases

> - missing weights for degree 0 and 1 nodes in clustering

> - configuration model now uses XGraph, returns graph with identical degree sequence as input sequence

> - fixed Dijkstra priority queue

> - fixed non-recursive toposort and is_directed_acyclic graph

## NetworkX 0.24

Release date: 20 August 2005

### Bug fixes

> - Update of Dijkstra algorithm code

> - dfs_successor now calls proper search method

> - Changed to list comprehension in DiGraph.reverse() for python2.3 compatibility

> - Barabasi-Albert graph generator fixed

> - Attempt to add self loop should add node even if parallel edges not allowed

## NetworkX 0.23

Release date: 14 July 2005

The NetworkX web locations have changed:

http://networkx.lanl.gov/ - main documentation site http://networkx.lanl.gov/svn/ - subversion source code repository https://networkx.lanl.gov/trac/ - bug tracking and info

### Important Change

The naming conventions in NetworkX have changed. The package name “NX” is now “networkx”.

The suggested ways to import the NetworkX package are

> - import networkx

> - import networkx as NX

> - from networkx import *

### New features

> - DiGraph reverse

> - Graph generators

>     - watts_strogatz_graph now does rewiring method

>     - old watts_strogatz_graph->newman_watts_strogatz_graph

### Examples

### Documentation

> - Changed to reflect NX-networkx change

> - main site is now https://networkx.lanl.gov/

### Bug fixes

> - Fixed logic in io.py for reading DiGraphs.

> - Path based centrality measures (betweenness, closeness) modified so they work on graphs that are not connected and produce the same result as if each connected component were considered separately.

## NetworkX 0.22

Release date: 17 June 2005

### New features

> - Topological sort, testing for directed acyclic graphs (DAGs)

> - Dijkstra’s algorithm for shortest paths in weighted graphs

> - Multidimensional layout with dim=n for drawing

> - 3d rendering demonstration with vtk

> - Graph generators

>     - random_powerlaw_tree

>     - dorogovtsev_goltsev_mendes_graph

### Examples

> - Kevin Bacon movie actor graph: Examples/kevin_bacon.py

> - Compute eigenvalues of graph Laplacian: Examples/eigenvalues.py

> - Atlas of small graphs: Examples/atlas.py

### Documentation

> - Rewrite of setup scripts to install documentation and tests in documentation directory specified

### Bug fixes

> - Handle calls to edges() with non-node, non-iterable items.

> - truncated_tetrahedral_graph was just plain wrong

> - Speedup of betweenness_centrality code

> - bfs_path_length now returns correct lengths

> - Catch error if target of search not in connected component of source

> - Code cleanup to label internal functions with _name

> - Changed import statement lines to always use “import NX” to protect name-spaces

> - Other minor bug-fixes and testing added
