how to create graph using networkx from text file?

Question

// I have a text file include

node1  node2  weight
1      2      3
1      4      4
3      6      1
3      7      5
....
....

I want to creat

Answer 1

The first thing you have to do is to comment any descriptive data in your file. By default, Networkx considers any line starting with # as a comment.

#node1 node2 weight

1 2 3 ...

import networkx as net
FielName="GraphData.txt"
Graphtype=net.DiGraph()   # use net.Graph() for undirected graph

# How to read from a file. Note: if your egde weights are int, 
# change float to int.
G = net.read_edgelist(
    FielName, 
    create_using=Graphtype,
    nodetype=int,
    data=(('weight',float),)
)

# Find the total number of degree, in_degree and out_degree for each node
for x in G.nodes():
    print(
        "Node: ", x, " has total #degree: ",G.degree(x),
        " , In_degree: ", G.out_degree(x),
        " and out_degree: ", G.in_degree(x)
    )

# Find the weight for each node
for u,v in G.edges():
      print ("Weight of Edge ("+str(u)+","+str(v)+")", G.get_edge_data(u,v))

I recommend you to read the Reading and writing graphs in Networkx and have a look to read_edgelist
