I was wondering how people deal with graph theory in python? How is a graph stored? Are there libraries for this?

For example how would I input a graph and then find its Chromatic polynomial? Or its girth? Or the number of unique spanning trees? How about problems that involve edge weight like salesman problems?

I don't need all of these answered, I'm just looking for a method or tool set that will be able to help me approach solve problems like this.

Thanks, Dan

Is finding graph minors without single node pinch points possible?

as seen on Game Development - Search for 'Game Development'
Is it possible to robustly find all the graph minors within an arbitrary node graph where the pinch points are generally not single nodes? I have read some other posts on here about how to break up your graph into a Hamiltonian cycle and then from that find the graph minors but it seems to be such… >>> More
