Description-en: generic graph components and algorithms in C++ (default version)
This package forms part of the Boost C++ Libraries collection.
.
Graphs are mathematical abstractions that are useful for solving
many types of problems in computer science. Consequently, these
abstractions must also be represented in computer programs. A
standardized generic interface for traversing graphs is of utmost
importance to encourage reuse of graph algorithms and data structures.
.
This package is a dependency package, which depends on Debian's default
Boost version (currently 1.58).
