Summary

This chapter has described several of the visualization methods provided by NetworkX, as well as ways to use them effectively. The circular layout is a clear and simple option for smaller networks. Maintaining much of the clarity of the circular layout, the shell layout can visualize more nodes in the same space and can convey centrality information. Finally, the force-directed layout can handle large networks and communicate community structure, although it is sometimes necessary to apply additional techniques to focus on particular subsets of edges. Our network adventure is now drawing to a close. The next and final chapter reviews the themes of this book, and offers some suggestions for additional resources.
