Compute minimum spanning tree for an undirected graph

Description

Compute minimum spanning tree for an undirected graph

Usage

mstree.prim(g)
prim.minST(g)

Arguments

g an instance of the graph class with edgemode “undirected”

Details

This is Prim's algorithm for solving the minimum spanning tree problem for an undirected graph with weighted edges.

The function prim.minST is depricated and renamed, use mstree.prim instead.

See documentations on this function in Boost Graph Library for more details.

Value

A list of

edges the edges that form the minimum spanning tree
weights the total weight of the minimum spanning tree
