chainQuiver -- make a toric quiver on underlying graph in the form of a chain

Synopsis

Usage:

chainQuiver E
Inputs:
- E, a list, number of edges linking each vertex to the next
Optional inputs:
- Flow (missing documentation) => ..., default value "Canonical", specify what form of flow to use. This input can be either a string with values Canonical or Random, or else a list of integer values.
Outputs:
- Q, an instance of the type ToricQuiver,
