Long time, no chat. I have a question about syntactic sugar.
In an earlier version of 0.6 (from May of last year), it is possible to query vertices by name for most of the commands. So for example:
> G.degree(0)
will give you the degree of the zeroth node, but after
G.vs[0]["name"] = "node1"
you can also say:
> G.degree("node1")
and it will give the degree of that node.
However, I want to be able to interact with a node, doing things like assigning attributes to it by querying it. For example
G.vs["node1"].index rather than keep a parallel list. The problem with the parallel list is that it has to be updated any time I add or delete a node, and so I feel it is not as robust.
Has that subsequently been implemented? (I'm using a custom compiled 0.6 on Python 2.6).
Take care,
