In order of increasing 031 * complexity they are: {@link Graph}, {@link ValueGraph}, and {@link Network}. You should generally 032 * prefer the simplest interface that satisfies your use case. See the <a 033 * href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#choosing-the-right-graph-type"> 034 * "Choosing the right graph type"</a> section of the Guava User Guide for more details. 035 * 036 * <h3>Capabilities</h3> 037 * 038 * <p>{@code ValueGraph} supports the following use cases (<a 039 * href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#definitions">definitions of 040 * terms</a>): 041 * 042 * <ul> 043 * <li>directed graphs 044 * <li>undirected graphs 045 * <li>graphs that do/don't allow self-loops 046 * <li>graphs whose nodes/edges are insertion-ordered, sorted, or unordered 047 * <li>graphs whose edges have associated values 048 * </ul> 049 * 050 * <p>{@code ValueGraph}, as a subtype of {@code Graph}, explicitly does not support parallel edges, 051 * and forbids implementations or extensions with parallel edges. If you need parallel edges, use 052 * {@link Network}. (You can use a positive {@code Integer} edge value as a loose representation of 053 * edge multiplicity, but the {@code *degree()} and mutation methods will not reflect your 054 * interpretation of the edge value as its multiplicity.) 055 * 056 * <h3>Building a {@code ValueGraph}</h3> 057 * 058 * <p>The implementation classes that {@code common.graph} provides are not public, by design. To 059 * create an instance of one of the built-in implementations of {@code ValueGraph}, use the {@link 060 * ValueGraphBuilder} class: 061 * 062 * <pre>{@code 063 * MutableValueGraph<Integer, Double> graph = ValueGraphBuilder.directed().build(); 064 * }</pre> 065 * 066 * <p>{@link ValueGraphBuilder#build()} returns an instance of {@link MutableValueGraph}, which is a 067 * subtype of {@code ValueGraph} that provides methods for adding and removing nodes and edges. If 068 * you do not need to mutate a graph (e.g. if you write a method than runs a read-only algorithm on 069 * the graph), you should use the non-mutating {@link ValueGraph} interface, or an {@link 070 * ImmutableValueGraph}. 071 * 072 * <p>You can create an immutable copy of an existing {@code ValueGraph} using {@link 073 * ImmutableValueGraph#copyOf(ValueGraph)}: 074 * 075 * <pre>{@code 076 * ImmutableValueGraph<Integer, Double> immutableGraph = ImmutableValueGraph.copyOf(graph); 077 * }</pre> 078 * 079 * <p>Instances of {@link ImmutableValueGraph} do not implement {@link MutableValueGraph} 080 * (obviously!) and are contractually guaranteed to be unmodifiable and thread-safe. 081 * 082 * <p>The Guava User Guide has <a 083 * href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#building-graph-instances">more 084 * information on (and examples of) building graphs</a>. 085 * 086 * <h3>Additional documentation</h3> 087 * 088 * <p>See the Guava User Guide for the {@code common.graph} package (<a 089 * href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained">"Graphs Explained"</a>) for 090 * additional documentation, including: 091 * 092 * <ul> 093 * <li><a 094 * href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#equals-hashcode-and-graph-equivalence"> 095 * {@code equals()}, {@code hashCode()}, and graph equivalence</a> 096 * <li><a href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#synchronization"> 097 * Synchronization policy</a> 098 * <li><a href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#notes-for-implementors">Notes 099 * for implementors</a> 100 * </ul> 101 * 102 * @author James Sexton 103 * @author Joshua O'Madadhain 104 * @param <N> Node parameter type 105 * @param <V> Value parameter type 106 * @since 20.0 107 */ 108@Beta 109public interface ValueGraph<N, V> extends BaseGraph<N> { 110 // 111 // ValueGraph-level accessors 112 // 113 114 /** {@inheritDoc} */ 115 @Override 116 Set<N> nodes(); 117 118 /** {@inheritDoc} */ 119 @Override 120 Set<EndpointPair<N>> edges(); 121 122 /** 123 * Returns a live view of this graph as a {@link Graph}.
