35 ///\brief Implementation of an algorithm for finding a flow of value \c k
36 ///(for small values of \c k) having minimal total cost between 2 nodes
39 /// The class \ref lemon::MinCostFlow "MinCostFlow" implements
40 /// an algorithm for finding a flow of value \c k
41 /// having minimal total cost
42 /// from a given source node to a given target node in an
43 /// edge-weighted directed graph. To this end,
44 /// the edge-capacities and edge-weitghs have to be nonnegative.
45 /// The edge-capacities should be integers, but the edge-weights can be
46 /// integers, reals or of other comparable numeric type.
47 /// This algorithm is intended to use only for small values of \c k,
48 /// since it is only polynomial in k,
49 /// not in the length of k (which is log k).
50 /// In order to find the minimum cost flow of value \c k it
51 /// finds the minimum cost flow of value \c i for every
52 /// \c i between 0 and \c k.
54 ///\param Graph The directed graph type the algorithm runs on.
55 ///\param LengthMap The type of the length map.
56 ///\param CapacityMap The capacity map type.
