/**
* An interface for <a
* href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)">graph</a>-structured data,
* whose edges have associated non-unique values.
*
* <p>A graph is composed of a set of nodes and a set of edges connecting pairs of nodes.
*
* <p>There are three primary interfaces provided to represent graphs. In order of increasing
* complexity they are: {@link Graph}, {@link ValueGraph}, and {@link Network}. You should generally
* prefer the simplest interface that satisfies your use case. See the <a
* href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#choosing-the-right-graph-type">
* "Choosing the right graph type"</a> section of the Guava User Guide for more details.
*
* <h3>Capabilities</h3>
*
* <p>{@code ValueGraph} supports the following use cases (<a
* href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#definitions">definitions of
* terms</a>):
*
* <ul>
* <li>directed graphs
* <li>undirected graphs
* <li>graphs that do/don't allow self-loops
* <li>graphs whose nodes/edges are insertion-ordered, sorted, or unordered
* <li>graphs whose edges have associated values
* </ul>
*
* <p>{@code ValueGraph}, as a subtype of {@code Graph}, explicitly does not support parallel edges,
* and forbids implementations or extensions with parallel edges. If you need parallel edges, use
* {@link Network}. (You can use a positive {@code Integer} edge value as a loose representation of
* edge multiplicity, but the {@code *degree()} and mutation methods will not reflect your
* interpretation of the edge value as its multiplicity.)
*
* <h3>Building a {@code ValueGraph}</h3>
*
* <p>The implementation classes that `common.graph` provides are not public, by design. To create
* an instance of one of the built-in implementations of {@code ValueGraph}, use the {@link
* ValueGraphBuilder} class:
*
* <pre>{@code
* MutableValueGraph<Integer, Double> graph = ValueGraphBuilder.directed().build();
* }</pre>
*
* <p>{@link ValueGraphBuilder#build()} returns an instance of {@link MutableValueGraph}, which is a
* subtype of {@code ValueGraph} that provides methods for adding and removing nodes and edges. If
* you do not need to mutate a graph (e.g. if you write a method than runs a read-only algorithm on
* the graph), you should use the non-mutating {@link ValueGraph} interface, or an {@link
* ImmutableValueGraph}.
*
* <p>You can create an immutable copy of an existing {@code ValueGraph} using {@link
* ImmutableValueGraph#copyOf(ValueGraph)}:
*
* <pre>{@code
* ImmutableValueGraph<Integer, Double> immutableGraph = ImmutableValueGraph.copyOf(graph);
* }</pre>
*
* <p>Instances of {@link ImmutableValueGraph} do not implement {@link MutableValueGraph}
* (obviously!) and are contractually guaranteed to be unmodifiable and thread-safe.
*
* <p>The Guava User Guide has <a
* href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/GraphsExplained#building-graph-instances">more
* information on (and examples of) building graphs</a>.
*
* <h3>Additional documentation</h3>
*
