+# NetworkX
+
+## Overview
+
+NetworkX is a Python package for creating, manipulating, and analyzing complex networks and graphs. Use this skill when working with network or graph data structures, including social networks, biological networks, transportation systems, citation networks, knowledge graphs, or any system involving relationships between entities.
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+Invoke this skill when tasks involve:
+
+- **Creating graphs**: Building network structures from data, adding nodes and edges with attributes
+- **Graph analysis**: Computing centrality measures, finding shortest paths, detecting communities, measuring clustering
+- **Graph algorithms**: Running standard algorithms like Dijkstra's, PageRank, minimum spanning trees, maximum flow
+- **Network generation**: Creating synthetic networks (random, scale-free, small-world models) for testing or simulation
+- **Graph I/O**: Reading from or writing to various formats (edge lists, GraphML, JSON, CSV, adjacency matrices)
+- **Visualization**: Drawing and customizing network visualizations with matplotlib or interactive libraries
+- **Network comparison**: Checking isomorphism, computing graph metrics, analyzing structural properties
+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+### 1. Graph Creation and Manipulation
+
+NetworkX supports four main graph types:
+- **Graph**: Undirected graphs with single edges
+- **DiGraph**: Directed graphs with one-way connections
+- **MultiGraph**: Undirected graphs allowing multiple edges between nodes
+- **MultiDiGraph**: Directed graphs with multiple edges
+
+Create graphs by:
+```python
+import networkx as nx
+
+# Create empty graph
+G = nx.Graph()
+
+# Add nodes (can be any hashable type)
+G.add_node(1)
+G.add_nodes_from([2, 3, 4])
+G.add_node("protein_A", type='enzyme', weight=1.5)
+
+# Add edges
+G.add_edge(1, 2)
+G.add_edges_from([(1, 3), (2, 4)])
+G.add_edge(1, 4, weight=0.8, relation='interacts')
+```
+
+**Reference**: See `references/graph-basics.md` for comprehensive guidance on creating, modifying, examining, and managing graph structures, including working with attributes and subgraphs.
+
+### 2. Graph Algorithms
+
+NetworkX provides extensive algorithms for network analysis:
+
+**Shortest Paths**:
+```python
+# Find shortest path
+path = nx.shortest_path(G, source=1, target=5)
+length = nx.shortest_path_length(G, source=1, target=5, weight='weight')
+```
+
+**Centrality Measures**:
+```python
+# Degree centrality
+degree_cent = nx.degree_centrality(G)
+
+# Betweenness centrality
+betweenness = nx.betweenness_centrality(G)
+
+# PageRank
+pagerank = nx.pagerank(G)
+```
+
+**Community Detection**:
+```python
+from networkx.algorithms import community
+
+# Detect communities
+communities = community.greedy_modularity_communities(G)
+```
+
+**Connectivity**:
+```python
+# Check connectivity
+is_connected = nx.is_connected(G)
+
+# Find connected components
+components = list(nx.connected_components(G))
+```
+
+**Reference**: See `references/algorithms.md` for detailed documentation on all available algorithms including shortest paths, centrality measures, clustering, community detection, flows, matching, tree algorithms, and graph traversal.
+
+### 3. Graph Generators
+
+Create synthetic networks for testing, simulation, or modeling:
+
+**Classic Graphs**:
+```python
+# Complete graph
+G = nx.complete_graph(n=10)
+
+# Cycle graph
+G = nx.cycle_graph(n=20)
+
+# Known graphs
+G = nx.karate_club_graph()
+G = nx.petersen_graph()
+```
+
+**Random Networks**:
+```python
+# Erdős-Rényi random graph
+G = nx.erdos_renyi_graph(n=100, p=0.1, seed=42)
+
+# Barabási-Albert scale-free network
+G = nx.barabasi_albert_graph(n=100, m=3, seed=42)
+
+# Watts-Strogatz small-world network
+G = nx.watts_strogatz_graph(n=100, k=6, p=0.1, seed=42)
+```
+
+**Structured Networks**:
+```python
+# Grid graph
+G = nx.grid_2d_graph(m=5, n=7)
+
+# Random tree
+G = nx.random_tree(n=100, seed=42)
+```
+
+**Reference**: See `references/generators.md` for comprehensive coverage of all graph generators including classic, random, lattice, bipartite, and specialized network models with detailed parameters and use cases.
+
+### 4. Reading and Writing Graphs
+
+NetworkX supports numerous file formats and data sources:
+
+**File Formats**:
+```python
+# Edge list
+G = nx.read_edgelist('graph.edgelist')
+nx.write_edgelist(G, 'graph.edgelist')
+
+# GraphML (preserves attributes)
+G = nx.read_graphml('graph.graphml')
+nx.write_graphml(G, 'graph.graphml')
+
+# GML
+G = nx.read_gml('graph.gml')
+nx.write_gml(G, 'graph.gml')
+
+# JSON
+data = nx.node_link_data(G)
+G = nx.node_link_graph(data)
+```
+
+**Pandas Integration**:
+```python
+import pandas as pd
+
+# From DataFrame
+df = pd.DataFrame({'source': [1, 2, 3], 'target': [2, 3, 4], 'weight': [0.5, 1.0, 0.75]})
+G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(df, 'source', 'target', edge_attr='weight')
+
+# To DataFrame
+df = nx.to_pandas_edgelist(G)
+```
+
+**Matrix Formats**:
+```python
+import numpy as np
+
+# Adjacency matrix
+A = nx.to_numpy_array(G)
+G = nx.from_numpy_array(A)
+
+# Sparse matrix
+A = nx.to_scipy_sparse_array(G)
+G = nx.from_scipy_sparse_array(A)
+```
+
+**Reference**: See `references/io.md` for complete documentation on all I/O formats including CSV, SQL databases, Cytoscape, DOT, and guidance on format selection for different use cases.
+
+### 5. Visualization
+
+Create clear and informative network visualizations:
+
+**Basic Visualization**:
+```python
+import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
+
+# Simple draw
+nx.draw(G, with_labels=True)
+plt.show()
+
+# With layout
+pos = nx.spring_layout(G, seed=42)
+nx.draw(G, pos=pos, with_labels=True, node_color='lightblue', node_size=500)
+plt.show()
+```
+
+**Customization**:
+```python
+# Color by degree
+node_colors = [G.degree(n) for n in G.nodes()]
+nx.draw(G, node_color=node_colors, cmap=plt.cm.viridis)
+
+# Size by centrality
+centrality = nx.betweenness_centrality(G)
+node_sizes = [3000 * centrality[n] for n in G.nodes()]
+nx.draw(G, node_size=node_sizes)
+
+# Edge weights
+edge_widths = [3 * G[u][v].get('weight', 1) for u, v in G.edges()]
+nx.draw(G, width=edge_widths)
+```
+
+**Layout Algorithms**:
+```python
+# Spring layout (force-directed)
+pos = nx.spring_layout(G, seed=42)
+
+# Circular layout
+pos = nx.circular_layout(G)
+
+# Kamada-Kawai layout
+pos = nx.kamada_kawai_layout(G)
+
+# Spectral layout
+pos = nx.spectral_layout(G)
+```
+
+**Publication Quality**:
+```python
+plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8))
+pos = nx.spring_layout(G, seed=42)
+nx.draw(G, pos=pos, node_color='lightblue', node_size=500,
+        edge_color='gray', with_labels=True, font_size=10)
+plt.title('Network Visualization', fontsize=16)
+plt.axis('off')
+plt.tight_layout()
+plt.savefig('network.png', dpi=300, bbox_inches='tight')
+plt.savefig('network.pdf', bbox_inches='tight')  # Vector format
+```
+
+**Reference**: See `references/visualization.md` for extensive documentation on visualization techniques including layout algorithms, customization options, interactive visualizations with Plotly and PyVis, 3D networks, and publication-quality figure creation.
+
+## Working with NetworkX
+
+### Installation
+
+Ensure NetworkX is installed:
+```python
+# Check if installed
+import networkx as nx
+print(nx.__version__)
+
+# Install if needed (via bash)
+# uv pip install networkx
+# uv pip install networkx[default]  # With optional dependencies
+```
+
+### Common Workflow Pattern
+
+Most NetworkX tasks follow this pattern:
+
+1. **Create or Load Graph**:
+   ```python
+   # From scratch
+   G = nx.Graph()
+   G.add_edges_from([(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4)])
+
+   # Or load from file/data
+   G = nx.read_edgelist('data.txt')
+   ```
+
+2. **Examine Structure**:
+   ```python
+   print(f"Nodes: {G.number_of_nodes()}")
+   print(f"Edges: {G.number_of_edges()}")
+   print(f"Density: {nx.density(G)}")
+   print(f"Connected: {nx.is_connected(G)}")
+   ```
+
+3. **Analyze**:
+   ```python
+   # Compute metrics
+   degree_cent = nx.degree_centrality(G)
+   avg_clustering = nx.average_clustering(G)
+
+   # Find paths
+   path = nx.shortest_path(G, source=1, target=4)
+
+   # Detect communities
+   communities = community.greedy_modularity_communities(G)
+   ```
+
+4. **Visualize**:
+   ```python
+   pos = nx.spring_layout(G, seed=42)
+   nx.draw(G, pos=pos, with_labels=True)
+   plt.show()
+   ```
+
+5. **Export Results**:
+   ```python
+   # Save graph
+   nx.write_graphml(G, 'analyzed_network.graphml')
+
+   # Save metrics
+   df = pd.DataFrame({
+       'node': list(degree_cent.keys()),
+       'centrality': list(degree_cent.values())
+   })
+   df.to_csv('centrality_results.csv', index=False)
+   ```
+
+### Important Considerations
+
+**Floating Point Precision**: When graphs contain floating-point numbers, all results are inherently approximate due to precision limitations. This can affect algorithm outcomes, particularly in minimum/maximum computations.
+
+**Memory and Performance**: Each time a script runs, graph data must be loaded into memory. For large networks:
+- Use appropriate data structures (sparse matrices for large sparse graphs)
+- Consider loading only necessary subgraphs
+- Use efficient file formats (pickle for Python objects, compressed formats)
+- Leverage approximate algorithms for very large networks (e.g., `k` parameter in centrality calculations)
+
+**Node and Edge Types**:
+- Nodes can be any hashable Python object (numbers, strings, tuples, custom objects)
+- Use meaningful identifiers for clarity
+- When removing nodes, all incident edges are automatically removed
+
+**Random Seeds**: Always set random seeds for reproducibility in random graph generation and force-directed layouts:
+```python
+G = nx.erdos_renyi_graph(n=100, p=0.1, seed=42)
+pos = nx.spring_layout(G, seed=42)
+```
+
