Network is a simple pure Python package for generating, modifying and playing with (even complex) networks. The motivation was to create a very small network framework which offers reasonable many attributes and operates relatively fast. It is meant to run smoothly for stochastic simulations on networks, unlike a famous NetworkX package.

The package itself lives in /network folder where is the main Network object. All generative network models are in /network/models.

The Network package was developed on Python 3.6.9 and the required packages can be find in requirements folder. To install the package from this GitHub repo using pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/matejker/network.git@0.0.2

Feel more that free to use, modify and copy the code, just follow the licence and cite it:
