PyRGG: Python Random Graph Generator

Overview

PyRGG is a user-friendly synthetic random graph generator that is written in Python and supports multiple graph file formats, such as DIMACS-Graph files. It can generate graphs of various sizes and is specifically designed to create input files for a wide range of graph-based research applications, including testing, benchmarking, and performance analysis of graph processing frameworks. PyRGG is aimed at computer scientists who are studying graph algorithms and graph processing frameworks.
