  • Ticket #15507 – Description

    initial v1  
    11On Sage-devel [1], Christian reported an humiliating error message :
    22
    3 
     3{{{
     4sage: graphs.PathGraph(70000).diameter()       
     5...
     6ValueError: The graph backend contains more than 65535 nodes
     7}}}

    59This is because Sage's "static_sparse_graphs" are stored on `unsigned short` fields (and thus to 65536 vertices), and though this is a meaningful limitation for Sage's code to compute the "all pairs shortest path" (the distance between all pairs of vertices, i.e. a n^2 matrix of integers), it does not make any sense to refuse to compute the diameter of such graphs.

    913I have to mention that this does not make "diameter" answer very fast either on instances with more than 65536 vertices `:-/`
