Hi all,

I generate a gml file with nodes having an integer attribute. But when I read it back using igraph.read, the attribute values are floats.

for example this is how I generating gml file:

count = 0  # My intention is to make the attribute value an integer, otherwise I can use 0.0

for loop:

    node_attribute = count

    count += 1

Which language is this? It is actually helpful to send a reproducible example, because then at least we know if you are using C, R or Python. 

If this is R, then note that it R 0 is not an integer, it is a double. 0L is an integer:

is.integer(0)

# [1] FALSE

is.integer(0L)

# [1] TRUE

However, R igraph does not support integer attributes, only doubles. 

Best,

Gabor

 

But when I read the gml file using igraph, the node attribute becomes float, i.e. 0.0

Is it a bug or am I doing some silly mistake?

Cheers,
