py3: trying to fix posets by not sorting vertices in static graphs

[dcoudert]

This makes many doctests errors

sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/generic_graph.py  # 7 doctests failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/strongly_regular_db.pyx  # 2 doctests failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/connectivity.pyx  # 1 doctest failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/base/static_sparse_graph.pyx  # 1 doctest failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/generic_graph_pyx.pyx  # 2 doctests failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/comparability.pyx  # 1 doctest failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/base/static_sparse_backend.pyx  # 1 doctest failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/hyperbolicity.pyx  # 8 doctests failed

[chapoton]

damned.. This would have been too simple..

[chapoton]

even just the simple change in static_sparse_backend.pyx triggers doctests failures in src/sage/graphs/connectivity.pyx (related to SPQR trees, in fact)

EDIT: more precisely

sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/connectivity.pyx  # 6 doctests failed
sage -t --long src/sage/graphs/base/static_sparse_backend.pyx  # 4 doctests failed

[dcoudert]

This is not surprising. The entire graph module assumes that the order of the vertices is always the same. Touching this ordering is a nightmare..

trac 26447 sorting when possible

[chapoton]

Ok, so this is a working proposal: sort if possible. Not breaking any doctest on python2.

EDIT: and improving a lot of things on the python3 side !

[dcoudert]

In general I agree with this change. However, I have the following concern:

• the description of parameter vertex_list must be extended. It should be explained that if it is given, the ordering induced by this vertex_list is used to map vertices to integers.
• What if vertex_list is not a list but a set, dict, etc. ?
• What if vertex_list has length less than G.order(). In particular, we must check that set(vertex_list) == set(G.vertices()).
• Specific doctests are required.

Question: in the declaration of method init_short_digraph in file static_sparse_graph.pxd, you use vertex_list = ?. Shouldn't it be vertex_list=? to comply with PEP8 ?

trac 26447 more doc and doctest

[chapoton]

Here is some more doc. I would prefer not to add checks for the type, length and content of "vertex_list".

[dcoudert]

I did several tests and it's working well except when the list has more vertices than the graph. This particular case could be tested at low cost, no ?

In all other cases, when the given list is not good, an error is raised somewhere.

sage: from sage.graphs.base.static_sparse_backend import StaticSparseCGraph
sage: G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: S = StaticSparseCGraph(G, vertex_list=range(10))
sage: S = StaticSparseCGraph(G, vertex_list=range(10)[::-1])
sage: S.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
sage: S = StaticSparseCGraph(G, vertex_list=range(20)) ### should we care ??
sage: S.verts()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

sage: S = StaticSparseCGraph(G, vertex_list=range(5))

[chapoton]

ok, done

[dcoudert]

LGTM, passes all long tests on graphs.

[embray]

This should be re-targeted for 8.5.
