//Scala//Filtering the edges which have relation other than 'friend'val edgeFilterGraph = graph.subgraph(epred = (edge) => edge.attr.equals("friend"))edgeFilterGraph.edges.collect()

As shown in the previous example, we are passing an edge predicate (epred) to filter out all the relation expect 'friend' relation. One important point to note here is that all the vertices will still be part of the new edgeFilterGraph. The
