trait Edge[V, E] extends Attribute[E], Connexion[V]

Defines an abstraction for an edge in a graph structure that connects two vertices. An Edge may be directed or undirected, and it carries an attribute of type E.

The connection is established between two vertices of type V, referred to as white and black. The type (directionality) of the edge, as well as whether it allows traversal in one or both directions, is given by the edgeType field.

Type parameters

E: the type of the attribute associated with the edge.
V: the type of the vertices connected by the edge.

Abstract methods

Retrieves the type of the edge (e.g., directed or undirected).

Attributes

Returns: an instance of EdgeType that describes whether the edge is directed (one-way) or undirected (two-way).

Inherited and Abstract methods

Retrieves the attribute of type A associated with this instance.

Attributes

Returns: the attribute of type A representing the defining characteristic or property of this instance.
Inherited from:: Attribute

Retrieves the black Vertex of this Connexion. If this is a DirectedEdge, this vertex represents the end. If this is an UndirectedEdge, see the note above for white.

Attributes

Returns: the "black" vertex.
Inherited from:: Connexion

Retrieves the white Vertex of this Connexion. If this is a DirectedEdge, this vertex represents the start. If this is an UndirectedEdge, white to black represents the nominal direction. Individual adjacencies can be based on a flipped version of an UndirectedEdge.

Attributes

Returns: the "white" vertex.
Inherited from:: Connexion
