Re: [igraph] how to change attributes to a randomly selected nodes of a network in igraph

[giorgio delzeri]

Ok, perfect!

Anyway, I think I was not so clear at describing wath the algorithm should must do.

there are only 4 compartment in total, A, B, C, D.

At the beginning of the algorithm, all nodes are in the compartment A.

The first sample turn 10 nodes from A to B, and this is the only part of the program that some of the nodes goes in B.

In the repaet until loop, some nodes turn from A to C, and some other from C to D.

However, you've been kind to devote your time to help me.

And, believe me, you helped me a lot!!

1) The "i <- 3" is there because I assign the letters "A" and "B" already before the while loop; so then the following assignment will be "C" (i.e., the 3rd element/letter in the "cnames" vector)

2) The 0.15 was included because I thought you wanted to sample only 15% of the nodes. I included "round" to avoid any potential issues with decimals, which I think is already handled by "sample" anyway.

3) In the last 2 lines of code, I increment "i" so a new letter is chosen for the next "compartment". The line before that one is to assign that new compartment only if there is at least 1 sampled neighbor.

4) No, the "unique" line does not remove vertices. The function "adjacent_vertices" returns a list (since "x" can be more than 1 node), so I "unlist" it to make it a numeric vector. I call "unique" to remove any possible duplicates.

I was reading more carefully your code, Chris.

I noticed that there is "  unique(unlist(adjacent_vertices(g, x)))  ".

This fuction does not remove any vertices or edges, I am right?

Is only an assignement, or not?

Because in the algorithm I have not to change anything in the original network, I have only to "assign" attributes to the vertices...

As you can see, I am not a good igraph expert ;-)
