Hi Jeff,

I am not sure what you want to do, but the 'graph' and 'igraph'
packages are for network, graph theory, i.e.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory

If you think that this is the kind of tool you need, look over the
manual of the packages, and the documentation at the igraph homepage
at http://igraph.sf.net to see what these packages can do for you.

Best,
Gabor
