Directed acyclic graphs — is_dag • igraph

This function tests whether the given graph is a DAG, a directed acyclic graph.

Usage

is_dag(graph)

Arguments

graph: The input graph. It may be undirected, in which case FALSE is reported.

Value

A logical vector of length one.

Details

is_dag() checks whether there is a directed cycle in the graph. If not, the graph is a DAG.
