mcxdiameter - compute the diameter of a graph
mcx diameter [options]
mcxdiameter is not in actual fact a program. This manual page documents the behaviour and options of the mcx program when invoked in mode diameter. The options -h, --apropos, --version, -set, --nop, -progress <num> are accessible in all mcx modes. They are described in the mcx manual page.
mcx diameter [-abc <fname> (specify label input)] [-imx <fname> (specify matrix input)] [-tab <fname> (use tab file)] [--list (list eccentricity for all nodes)] [-h (print synopsis, exit)] [--apropos (print synopsis, exit)] [--version (print version, exit)]
mcx diameter computes the diameter of a graph. The input graph should be symmetric. Results will be unpredictable for directed graphs. For label input this is irrelevant as mcx diameter will create a symmetric graph from the input.
The input graph/matrix, if specified with the -imx option, has to be in mcl matrix/graph format. You can use label input instead by using the -abc option. Refer to mcxio for a description of these two input formats. By default mcx diameter reads from STDIN and expects matrix format. To specify label input from STDIN use -abc -.
