How do I get the giant component of a NetworkX graph?

Question

I don\'t know if NetworkX recently tweaked one of the methods to be a generator instead of returning a list, but I\'m looking for a good (rather, better) way to get the GC o

Answer 1

In networkx 2.4, nx.connected_component_subgraphs() is deprecated, so the following should work:

Gcc = sorted(nx.connected_components(G), key=len, reverse=True)
G0 = G.subgraph(Gcc[0])

G0 is the giant component.
