rust-igraph 0.7.0

//! Caterpillar tree predicate (ALGO-PR-086).
//!
//! A caterpillar tree is a tree in which every vertex is within
//! distance 1 of a central path (the "spine"). Equivalently, removing
//! all leaf vertices from a caterpillar yields a path (or an empty
//! graph or a single vertex).
//!
//! For directed graphs, the function returns `false`.

/// Check whether a graph is a caterpillar tree.
///
/// Returns `false` for directed graphs and non-tree graphs.
/// Returns `true` for the empty graph, single vertex, single edge,
/// paths, and stars (all are caterpillars).
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use rust_igraph::{Graph, is_caterpillar};
///
/// // Star `K_{1,4}` is a caterpillar (spine is just the center)
/// let mut g = Graph::with_vertices(5);
/// for i in 1..5u32 {
///     g.add_edge(0, i).unwrap();
/// }
/// assert!(is_caterpillar(&g).unwrap());
///
/// // Spider (3 legs of length 2 from a center) is NOT a caterpillar
