Usage

# S3 method for linnet
diameter(x)
# S3 method for linnet
boundingradius(x, ...)

Value

Arguments

x

Linear network (object of class "linnet").

...

Ignored.

Details

The diameter of a linear network (in the shortest path distance) is the maximum value of the shortest-path distance between any two points \(u\) and \(v\) on the network.

The bounding radius of a linear network (in the shortest path distance) is the minimum value, over all points \(u\) on the network, of the maximum shortest-path distance from \(u\) to another point \(v\) on the network.

The functions boundingradius and diameter are generic; the functions boundingradius.linnet and diameter.linnet are the methods for objects of class linnet.
