+

+
+<h2 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h2>
+
+<p><code>shortest</code> computes the distance (and the shortest paths) between a
+given node and all the other nodes of an undirected graph provided as
+input. The program implements the Breadth-First Search algorithm.</p>
+
+<h2 id="PARAMETERS">PARAMETERS</h2>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><var>graph_in</var></dt><dd><p> input graph (edge list) if equal to <code>-</code> (dash), read the edge list
+ from STDIN.</p></dd>
+<dt class="flush"><var>node</var></dt><dd><p> The label of the node from which distances are to be computed</p></dd>
+<dt class="flush">SHOW</dt><dd><p> If the third (optional) parameter is equal to <code>SHOW</code>, the program
+ will dump on the standard error also all the shortest paths
+ between <var>node</var> and all the other nodes of the graph</p></dd>
+</dl>
+
+
+<h2 id="OUTPUT">OUTPUT</h2>
+
+<p><code>shortest</code> prints on the standard output the distances betwen <var>node</var>
+and all the other nodes of the graph, in the format:</p>
+
+<pre><code>d0 d1 d2 d3.....
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>where <code>d0</code> is the distance to node <code>0</code>, <code>d1</code> is the distance to node
+<code>1</code>, and so forth. If <code>SHOW</code> is given, the list of all the shortest
+paths between <var>node</var> and the other nodes is printed on the standard
+error, one path per line, in the format:</p>
+
+<pre><code>label0 label1 label2 ... node
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>where <code>label1</code>, <code>label2</code>, etc. are the labels of a shortest path
+between <code>label0</code> and <var>node</var></p>
+
+<h2 id="EXAMPLES">EXAMPLES</h2>
+
+<p>The following command:</p>
+
+<pre><code> $ shortest er_1000_5000.net 25
+ 3 4 4 4 2.......
+ $
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>will show on output the distances between node 25 and all the other
+nodes in the graph <code>er_1000_5000.net</code>. If we invoke the program with:</p>
+
+<pre><code> $ shortest er_1000_5000.net 25 SHOW 2&gt;er_1000_5000.net_25_paths
+ 3 4 4 4 2.......
+ $
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>the program will dump on STDERR the list of all the shortest paths
+between 'node' and all the other nodes of the graph. Since we used the
+redirection <code>2&gt;er_1000_5000.net_25_paths</code> (which can be read "redirect
+STDERR to 'er_1000_5000.net_25_paths' "), the list of shortest
+paths will be written to the file <code>er_1000_5000.net_25_paths</code>.</p>
