sage.graphs.graph_generators_pyx.RandomGNP(n, p, directed=False, loops=False)

Return a random graph or a digraph on $$n$$ nodes.

Each edge is inserted independently with probability $$p$$.

INPUT:

• n – number of nodes of the digraph
• p – probability of an edge
• directed – boolean (default: False); whether the random graph is directed or undirected (default)
• loops – boolean (default: False); whether the random digraph may have loops or not. This value is used only when directed == True.
