NAME

Graph::Maker::Grid - Creates a graph in a d-dimensional grid.

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

Creates a grid with the specified number of nodes in each dimension.

        use strict;
        use warnings;
        use Graph;
        use Graph::Maker;
        use Graph::Maker::Grid;

        my $g = new Graph::Maker('grid', dims => [3,4], undirected => 1); # 3 by 4 grid
        my $g2 = new Graph::Maker('grid', dims => [3,4], cyclic => 1, undirected => 1); # 3 by 4 grid with wrap-around
        # work with the graph

FUNCTIONS

new %params

Creates a grid with the specified number of nodes in each dimension (dims). The recognized parameters are dims (an array reference where the ith element gives the number of nodes in that dimension; all elements have to be positive), graph_maker, cyclic (if true then the grid wraps-around), and any others are passed onto Graph's constructor. If dims is an empty array reference, it returns an empty graph. If graph_maker is specified , it will be called to create the Graph class as desired (for example if you have a subclass of Graph).

BUGS

Please report any bugs or feature requests to bug-graph-maker-grid at rt.cpan.org, or through the web interface at http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=Graph-Maker. If graph_maker is specified it will be called to create the Graph class as desired (for example if you have a subclass of Graph), this defaults to create a Graph with the parameters specified.
