Is it possible to visualize the networks?

Absolutely. The skill includes guidance for drawing networks using Matplotlib, including various layout algorithms like spring, circular, and spectral layouts.

Can I import graph data from CSV or Excel?

Yes, the skill provides patterns for using Pandas DataFrames to create graphs, making it easy to import data from CSV, Excel, or SQL databases.

Which graph types does the NetworkX skill support?

The skill supports four primary types: Graph (undirected), DiGraph (directed), MultiGraph (undirected with multiple edges), and MultiDiGraph (directed with multiple edges).

What kind of analysis algorithms are available?

It includes a wide range of algorithms for shortest paths, centrality measures (like Betweenness and PageRank), community detection, and connectivity analysis.

Does this skill help with large datasets?

The skill includes considerations for memory and performance, suggesting the use of sparse matrices and approximate algorithms for very large networks.
