Examples

# NOT RUN {
# generate a ring graph
g <- make_ring(10, directed=TRUE)

# convert the object from 'igraph' to 'dgCMatrix' class
xConverter(g, from='igraph', to='dgCMatrix')

# }
# NOT RUN {
# Conversion between 'dgCMatrix' and 'igraph'
# ig.EF (an object of class "igraph" storing as a directed graph)
g <- xRDataLoader('ig.EF')
g

# convert the object from 'igraph' to 'dgCMatrix' class
s <- xConverter(g, from='igraph', to='dgCMatrix')
s[1:10,1:10]

# convert the object from 'dgCMatrix' to 'igraph' class
ig <- xConverter(s, from="dgCMatrix", to="igraph")
ig
