NAME

       Graph::BitMatrix - create and manipulate a V x V bit matrix of graph G

SYNOPSIS

           use Graph::BitMatrix;
           use Graph::Directed;
           my $g  = Graph::Directed->new;
           $g->add_...(); # build $g
           my $m = Graph::BitMatrix->new($g, %opt);
           $m->get($u, $v)
           $m->set($u, $v)
           $m->unset($u, $v)
           $m->get_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           $m->set_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           $m->unset_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           $a->vertices()

DESCRIPTION

       This class enables creating bit matrices that compactly describe the connected of the
       graphs.

   Class Methods
       new($g)
           Create a bit matrix from a Graph $g.  The %opt, if present, can have the following
           options:

           •       connect_edges

                   If true or if not present, set the bits in the bit matrix that correspond to
                   edges.  If false, do not set any bits.  In either case the bit matrix of V x V
                   bits is allocated.

   Object Methods
       get($u, $v)
           Return true if the bit matrix has a "one bit" between the vertices $u and $v; in other
           words, if there is (at least one) a vertex going from $u to $v.  If there is no vertex
           and therefore a "zero bit", return false.

       set($u, $v)
           Set the bit between the vertices $u and $v; in other words, connect the vertices $u
           and $v by an edge.  The change does not get mirrored back to the original graph.
           Returns nothing.

       unset($u, $v)
           Unset the bit between the vertices $u and $v; in other words, disconnect the vertices
           $u and $v by an edge.  The change does not get mirrored back to the original graph.
           Returns nothing.

       get_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           Test the row at vertex "u" for the vertices "v1", "v2", ..., "vn" Returns a list of n
           truth values.

       set_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           Sets the row at vertex "u" for the vertices "v1", "v2", ..., "vn", in other words,
           connects the vertex "u" to the vertices "vi".  The changes do not get mirrored back to
           the original graph.  Returns nothing.

       unset_row($u, $v1, $v2, ..., $vn)
           Unsets the row at vertex "u" for the vertices "v1", "v2", ..., "vn", in other words,
           disconnects the vertex "u" from the vertices "vi".  The changes do not get mirrored
           back to the original graph.  Returns nothing.

       vertices
           Return the list of vertices in the bit matrix.

ALGORITHM

       The algorithm used to create the matrix is two nested loops, which is O(V**2) in time, and
       the returned matrices are O(V**2) in space.
