Graph theory constructions

These exercises use the shared JXG.QuartoGraphEditor API. Click Show controls on any canvas for a reminder of the interactions. Every graph is converted from the editor’s JSON response into a validated NetworkX graph by the shared graph_from_response(...) checker helper. See the graph-editor API reference for authoring details.

Construct a tree

Construct a tree with at least five vertices.
