girth -- A method for computing the girth of a graph

Synopsis

Usage:

g = girth G
Inputs:
- G, an instance of the type Graph,
Outputs:
- g, an integer, the girth of G

Description

This method computes the girth (the smallest n such that G contains an n-cycle) of any graph. If the graph has no n-cycle as a subgraph, the output will be infinity.

i1 : girth completeGraph 6

o1 = 3

i2 : girth pathGraph 6

o2 = infinity

o2 : InfiniteNumber
