/**
@defgroup graphs Graph Structures

\brief Graph structures implemented in LEMON.

The implementation of combinatorial algorithms heavily relies on
efficient graph implementations. LEMON offers data structures which are
planned to be easily used in an experimental phase of implementation studies,
and thereafter the program code can be made efficient by small modifications.

The most efficient implementation of diverse applications require the
usage of different physical graph implementations. These differences
appear in the size of graph we require to handle, memory or time usage
limitations or in the set of operations through which the graph can be
accessed.  LEMON provides several physical graph structures to meet
the diverging requirements of the possible users.  In order to save on
running time or on memory usage, some structures may fail to provide
some graph features like arc/edge or node deletion.

You are free to use the graph structure that fit your requirements
the best, most graph algorithms and auxiliary data structures can be used
with any graph structure.

/**
\defgroup map_adaptors Map Adaptors
\ingroup maps
\brief Tools to create new maps from existing ones

This group describes map adaptors that are used to create "implicit"
maps from other maps.

Most of them are \ref lemon::concepts::ReadMap "read-only maps".
They can make arithmetic and logical operations between one or two maps
(negation, shifting, addition, multiplication, logical 'and', 'or',
'not' etc.) or e.g. convert a map to another one of different Value type.

The typical usage of this classes is passing implicit maps to
algorithms.  If a function type algorithm is called then the function
type map adaptors can be used comfortable. For example let's see the
usage of map adaptors with the \c graphToEps() function.
\code
  Color nodeColor(int deg) {
    if (deg >= 2) {
      return Color(0.5, 0.0, 0.5);
    } else if (deg == 1) {
      return Color(1.0, 0.5, 1.0);
    } else {
      return Color(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
    }
  }

  Digraph::NodeMap<int> degree_map(graph);

  graphToEps(graph, "graph.eps")
    .coords(coords).scaleToA4().undirected()
    .nodeColors(composeMap(functorToMap(nodeColor), degree_map))
    .run();
\endcode
The \c functorToMap() function makes an \c int to \c Color map from the
\c nodeColor() function. The \c composeMap() compose the \c degree_map
and the previously created map. The composed map is a proper function to
get the color of each node.

The usage with class type algorithms is little bit harder. In this
case the function type map adaptors can not be used, because the
function map adaptors give back temporary objects.
\code
  Digraph graph;

  typedef Digraph::ArcMap<double> DoubleArcMap;
  DoubleArcMap length(graph);
  DoubleArcMap speed(graph);

  typedef DivMap<DoubleArcMap, DoubleArcMap> TimeMap;
  TimeMap time(length, speed);

  Dijkstra<Digraph, TimeMap> dijkstra(graph, time);
  dijkstra.run(source, target);
\endcode
We have a length map and a maximum speed map on the arcs of a digraph.
The minimum time to pass the arc can be calculated as the division of
the two maps which can be done implicitly with the \c DivMap template
class. We use the implicit minimum time map as the length map of the
\c Dijkstra algorithm.

\brief Path structures implemented in LEMON.

This group describes the path structures implemented in LEMON.

LEMON provides flexible data structures to work with paths.
All of them have similar interfaces and they can be copied easily with
assignment operators and copy constructors. This makes it easy and
efficient to have e.g. the Dijkstra algorithm to store its result in
any kind of path structure.

/**
@defgroup concept Concepts
\brief Skeleton classes and concept checking classes

This group describes the data/algorithm skeletons and concept checking
classes implemented in LEMON.

The purpose of the classes in this group is fourfold.

- These classes contain the documentations of the concepts. In order
  to avoid document multiplications, an implementation of a concept
  simply refers to the corresponding concept class.

- These classes declare every functions, <tt>typedef</tt>s etc. an
  implementation of the concepts should provide, however completely
  without implementations and real data structures behind the
  interface. On the other hand they should provide nothing else. All
  the algorithms working on a data structure meeting a certain concept
  should compile with these classes. (Though it will not run properly,
  of course.) In this way it is easily to check if an algorithm
  doesn't use any extra feature of a certain implementation.

- The concept descriptor classes also provide a <em>checker class</em>
  that makes it possible to check whether a certain implementation of a
  concept indeed provides all the required features.

- Finally, They can serve as a skeleton of a new implementation of a concept.
