rel_cyclic: Cyclic Binary Relations

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also

Description

A binary relation R is cyclic, iff its transitive closure is not antisymmetric. Note that R may be reflexive and still acyclic, i.e., loops in R are not taken into account.

Usage

Arguments

R

an object coercible to a 0-1 (logical) square matrix, representing a binary relation on a finite set.

Details

rel_is_cyclic has O(n^3) time complexity, where n is the number of rows in R (the implemented algorithm currently verifies whether a depth-first search-based topological sorting is possible). Missing values in R always result in NA.

Value

rel_is_cyclic returns a single logical value.
