    37   /// The simple graph's can be refered as two containers, one node container
    38   /// and one edge container. But they are not standard containers they
    39   /// does not store values directly they are just key continars for more
    40   /// value containers which are the node and edge maps.
    41   ///
    42   /// The graph's node and edge sets can be changed as we add or erase
    43   /// nodes and edges in the graph. Lemon would like to handle easily
    44   /// that the node and edge maps should contain values for all nodes or
    45   /// edges. If we want to check on every indicing if the map contains
    46   /// the current indicing key that cause a drawback in the performance
    47   /// in the library. We use another solution we notify all maps about
    48   /// an alteration in the graph, which cause only drawback on the
    49   /// alteration of the graph.
    50   ///
    51   /// This class provides an interface to the container. The \e first() and \e 
    52   /// next() member functions make possible to iterate on the keys of the
    53   /// container. The \e id() function returns an integer id for each key.
    54   /// The \e maxId() function gives back an upper bound of the ids.
    55   ///
    56   /// For the proper functonality of this class, we should notify it
    57   /// about each alteration in the container. The alterations have four type
    58   /// as \e add(), \e erase(), \e build() and \e clear(). The \e add() and
    59   /// \e erase() signals that only one or few items added or erased to or
    60   /// from the graph. If all items are erased from the graph or from an empty
    61   /// graph a new graph is builded then it can be signaled with the
    62   /// clear() and build() members. Important rule that if we erase items 
    63   /// from graph we should first signal the alteration and after that erase
    64   /// them from the container, on the other way on item addition we should
    65   /// first extend the container and just after that signal the alteration.
    66   ///
    67   /// The alteration can be observed with a class inherited from the
    68   /// \e ObserverBase nested class. The signals can be handled with
    69   /// overriding the virtual functions defined in the base class.
    70   /// The observer base can be attached to the notifier with the
    71   /// \e attach() member and can be detached with detach() function.
    72   ///
    73   /// Alteration observers try to be exception safe. This can be achived
    74   /// when the observers does not throw exception on \e erase() and 
    75   /// \e clear(). Less strict condition is that the \e erase() should
    76   /// not throw exception after an \e add() with the same parameter and
    77   /// the \e clear() should not throw exception after a \e build(). 
    78   ///

    81   /// as in the \ref InDegMap and we use the reverseEdge that cause
