     69This group contains several useful adaptor classes for digraphs and graphs.

    6971The main parts of LEMON are the different graph structures, generic
    70 graph algorithms, graph concepts which couple these, and graph
     72graph algorithms, graph concepts, which couple them, and graph
    7173adaptors. While the previous notions are more or less clear, the
    7274latter one needs further explanation. Graph adaptors are graph classes
     
    7476
    7577A short example makes this much clearer.  Suppose that we have an
    76 instance \c g of a directed graph type say ListDigraph and an algorithm

    8284(in time or in memory usage) to copy \c g with the reversed
    8385arcs.  In this case, an adaptor class is used, which (according
    84 to LEMON digraph concepts) works as a digraph.  The adaptor uses the
    85 original digraph structure and digraph operations when methods of the
    86 reversed oriented graph are called.  This means that the adaptor have
    87 minor memory usage, and do not perform sophisticated algorithmic

     87The adaptor uses the original digraph structure and digraph operations when
     88methods of the reversed oriented graph are called.  This means that the adaptor
     89have minor memory usage, and do not perform sophisticated algorithmic
    8890actions.  The purpose of it is to give a tool for the cases when a
    8991graph have to be used in a specific alteration.  If this alteration is
    90 obtained by a usual construction like filtering the arc-set or
     92obtained by a usual construction like filtering the node or the arc set or
    9193considering a new orientation, then an adaptor is worthwhile to use.
    9294To come back to the reverse oriented graph, in this situation

    98100ListDigraph g;
    99 ReverseDigraph<ListGraph> rg(g);
     101ReverseDigraph<ListDigraph> rg(g);
    100102int result = algorithm(rg);
    101103\endcode
    102 After running the algorithm, the original graph \c g is untouched.
    103 This techniques gives rise to an elegant code, and based on stable

     105This techniques give rise to an elegant code, and based on stable

    105107
    106 In flow, circulation and bipartite matching problems, the residual
     108In flow, circulation and matching problems, the residual
    107109graph is of particular importance. Combining an adaptor implementing
    108 this, shortest path algorithms and minimum mean cycle algorithms,
     110this with shortest path algorithms or minimum mean cycle algorithms,
    109111a range of weighted and cardinality optimization algorithms can be

    113115The behavior of graph adaptors can be very different. Some of them keep
    114116capabilities of the original graph while in other cases this would be
    115 meaningless. This means that the concepts that they are models of depend
    116 on the graph adaptor, and the wrapped graph(s).
    117 If an arc of \c rg is deleted, this is carried out by deleting the
    118 corresponding arc of \c g, thus the adaptor modifies the original graph.

     117meaningless. This means that the concepts that they meet depend
     118on the graph adaptor, and the wrapped graph.
     119For example, if an arc of a reversed digraph is deleted, this is carried
     120out by deleting the corresponding arc of the original digraph, thus the
     121adaptor modifies the original digraph.
     122However in case of a residual digraph, this operation has no sense.

    121124Let us stand one more example here to simplify your work.

     125ReverseDigraph has constructor
    123126\code
    124127ReverseDigraph(Digraph& digraph);

    126 This means that in a situation, when a <tt>const ListDigraph&</tt>
     129This means that in a situation, when a <tt>const %ListDigraph&</tt>
    127130reference to a graph is given, then it have to be instantiated with

     131<tt>Digraph=const %ListDigraph</tt>.

    130133int algorithm1(const ListDigraph& g) {
