Exercise

Subgraphs II

In the previous exercise, we gave you a list of nodes whose neighbors we asked you to extract.

Let's try one more exercise in which you extract nodes that have a particular metadata property and their neighbors. This should hark back to what you've learned about using list comprehensions to find nodes. The exercise will also build your capacity to compose functions that you've already written before.

  • Using a list comprehension, extract nodes that have the metadata 'occupation' as 'celebrity' alongside their neighbors:
    • The output expression of the list comprehension is n, and there are two iterator variables: n and d. The iterable is the list of nodes of T (including the metadata, which you can specify using data=True) and the conditional expression is if the 'occupation' key of the metadata dictionary d equals 'celebrity'.
  • Place them in a new subgraph called T_sub. To do this:
    • Iterate over the nodes, compute the neighbors of each node, and add them to the set of nodes nodeset by using the .union() method. This last part has been done for you.
    • Use nodeset along with the T.subgraph() method to calculate T_sub.
  • Draw T_sub to the screen.
