David Mc Dougall <dam1...@g.rit.edu> added the comment:
I can post literally hundreds of examples of directed graphs that are traversable in the forward direction. This might be the only one which is *only* traversable backwards. > As to the meaning of "point to" Here is one: If I have a pointer in memory, I might represent that with an arrow, Like: ADDRESS -> VALUE Or if I have a dictionary I might write: KEY -> VALUE But in the graph the edges are directed the opposite way: KEY <- VALUE The edges in the graph point in the opposite direction as the underlying memory pointers. This is unexpected and confusing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46071> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
