    A topological sort is a nonunique permutation of the nodes of a

    valid only if the graph has no directed cycles.

    G : NetworkX digraph
        A directed acyclic graph (DAG)

    Yields
    ------
    nodes
        Yields the nodes in topological sorted order.

    Raises
    ------
    NetworkXError
        Topological sort is defined for directed graphs only. If the graph `G`
        is undirected, a :exc:`NetworkXError` is raised.

    NetworkXUnfeasible
        If `G` is not a directed acyclic graph (DAG) no topological sort exists

    RuntimeError
        If `G` is changed while the returned iterator is being processed.

    Examples
    --------

    >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 2), (2, 3)])
    >>> list(reversed(list(nx.topological_sort(DG))))
    [3, 2, 1]

    If your DiGraph naturally has the edges representing tasks/inputs
    and nodes representing people/processes that initiate tasks, then
    topological_sort is not quite what you need. You will have to change
    the tasks to nodes with dependence reflected by edges. The result is
    a kind of topological sort of the edges. This can be done
    with :func:`networkx.line_graph` as follows:

def lexicographical_topological_sort(G, key=None):
    """Generate the nodes in the unique lexicographical topological sort order.

    Generates a unique ordering of nodes by first sorting topologically (for which there are often
    multiple valid orderings) and then additionally by sorting lexicographically.

    A topological sort arranges the nodes of a directed graph so that the
    upstream node of each directed edge precedes the downstream node.
    It is always possible to find a solution for directed graphs that have no cycles.
    There may be more than one valid solution.

    Lexicographical sorting is just sorting alphabetically. It is used here to break ties in the
    topological sort and to determine a single, unique ordering.  This can be useful in comparing
    sort results.

    The lexicographical order can be customized by providing a function to the `key=` parameter.
    The definition of the key function is the same as used in python's built-in `sort()`.
    The function takes a single argument and returns a key to use for sorting purposes.

    Lexicographical sorting can fail if the node names are un-sortable. See the example below.
    The solution is to provide a function to the `key=` argument that returns sortable keys.


    Parameters
    ----------
    G : NetworkX digraph
        A directed acyclic graph (DAG)

    key : function, optional
        A function of one argument that converts a node name to a comparison key.
        It defines and resolves ambiguities in the sort order.  Defaults to the identity function.

    Yields
    ------
    nodes
        Yields the nodes of G in lexicographical topological sort order.

    Raises
    ------
    NetworkXError
        Topological sort is defined for directed graphs only. If the graph `G`
        is undirected, a :exc:`NetworkXError` is raised.

    NetworkXUnfeasible
        If `G` is not a directed acyclic graph (DAG) no topological sort exists
        and a :exc:`NetworkXUnfeasible` exception is raised.  This can also be
        raised if `G` is changed while the returned iterator is being processed

    RuntimeError
        If `G` is changed while the returned iterator is being processed.

    TypeError
        Results from un-sortable node names.
        Consider using `key=` parameter to resolve ambiguities in the sort order.

    Examples
    --------
    >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(2, 1), (2, 5), (1, 3), (1, 4), (5, 4)])
    >>> list(nx.lexicographical_topological_sort(DG))
    [2, 1, 3, 5, 4]
    >>> list(nx.lexicographical_topological_sort(DG, key=lambda x: -x))
    [2, 5, 1, 4, 3]

    The sort will fail for any graph with integer and string nodes. Comparison of integer to strings
    is not defined in python.  Is 3 greater or less than 'red'?

    >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 'red'), (3, 'red'), (1, 'green'), (2, 'blue')])
    >>> list(nx.lexicographical_topological_sort(DG))
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'
    ...

    Incomparable nodes can be resolved using a `key` function. This example function
    allows comparison of integers and strings by returning a tuple where the first
    element is True for `str`, False otherwise. The second element is the node name.
    This groups the strings and integers separately so they can be compared only among themselves.

    >>> key = lambda node: (isinstance(node, str), node)
    >>> list(nx.lexicographical_topological_sort(DG, key=key))
    [1, 2, 3, 'blue', 'green', 'red']

def transitive_closure(G, reflexive=False):
    """Returns transitive closure of a graph

    The transitive closure of G = (V,E) is a graph G+ = (V,E+) such that
    for all v, w in V there is an edge (v, w) in E+ if and only if there
    is a path from v to w in G.

    Handling of paths from v to v has some flexibility within this definition.
    A reflexive transitive closure creates a self-loop for the path
    from v to v of length 0. The usual transitive closure creates a
    self-loop only if a cycle exists (a path from v to v with length > 0).
    We also allow an option for no self-loops.

    Parameters
    ----------
    G : NetworkX Graph
        A directed/undirected graph/multigraph.
    reflexive : Bool or None, optional (default: False)
        Determines when cycles create self-loops in the Transitive Closure.
        If True, trivial cycles (length 0) create self-loops. The result
        is a reflexive transitive closure of G.
        If False (the default) non-trivial cycles create self-loops.
        If None, self-loops are not created.

    Returns
    -------
    NetworkX graph
        The transitive closure of `G`

    Raises
    ------
    NetworkXError
        If `reflexive` not in `{None, True, False}`

    Examples
    --------
    The treatment of trivial (i.e. length 0) cycles is controlled by the
    `reflexive` parameter.

    Trivial (i.e. length 0) cycles do not create self-loops when
    ``reflexive=False`` (the default)::

        >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 2), (2, 3)])
        >>> TC = nx.transitive_closure(DG, reflexive=False)
        >>> TC.edges()
        OutEdgeView([(1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3)])

    However, nontrivial (i.e. length greater then 0) cycles create self-loops
    when ``reflexive=False`` (the default)::

        >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1)])
        >>> TC = nx.transitive_closure(DG, reflexive=False)
        >>> TC.edges()
        OutEdgeView([(1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 1), (2, 3), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3)])

    Trivial cycles (length 0) create self-loops when ``reflexive=True``::

        >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 2), (2, 3)])
        >>> TC = nx.transitive_closure(DG, reflexive=True)
        >>> TC.edges()
        OutEdgeView([(1, 2), (1, 1), (1, 3), (2, 3), (2, 2), (3, 3)])

    And the third option is not to create self-loops at all when ``reflexive=None``::

        >>> DG = nx.DiGraph([(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1)])
        >>> TC = nx.transitive_closure(DG, reflexive=None)

        unique path from a root to a leaf).

        Each node has an attribute 'source' whose value is the original
        node to which this node corresponds. No other graph, node, or
        edge attributes are copied into this new graph.

    ------

    HasACycle
        If `G` is not acyclic.

    Examples
    --------
    To examine which nodes in the returned branching were produced by
    which original node in the directed acyclic graph, we can collect
    the mapping from source node to new nodes into a dictionary. For
    example, consider the directed diamond graph::

        >>> from collections import defaultdict
        >>> from operator import itemgetter
        >>>
        >>> G = nx.DiGraph(nx.utils.pairwise("abd"))
        >>> G.add_edges_from(nx.utils.pairwise("acd"))
        >>> B = nx.dag_to_branching(G)
        >>>
        >>> sources = defaultdict(set)
        >>> for v, source in B.nodes(data="source"):
        ...     sources[source].add(v)
        >>> len(sources["a"])
        1
        >>> len(sources["d"])
        2

    To copy node attributes from the original graph to the new graph,
    you can use a dictionary like the one constructed in the above
    example::

        >>> for source, nodes in sources.items():
        ...     for v in nodes:
        ...         B.nodes[v].update(G.nodes[source])

    Notes
    -----
    This function is not idempotent in the sense that the node labels in
    the returned branching may be uniquely generated each time the
    function is invoked. In fact, the node labels may not be integers;
    in order to relabel the nodes to be more readable, you can use the
    :func:`networkx.convert_node_labels_to_integers` function.

    The current implementation of this function uses
    :func:`networkx.prefix_tree`, so it is subject to the limitations of
