**************
Pickled Graphs
**************
Read and write NetworkX graphs as Python pickles.
"The pickle module implements a fundamental, but powerful algorithm
for serializing and de-serializing a Python object
structure. "Pickling" is the process whereby a Python object hierarchy
is converted into a byte stream, and "unpickling" is the inverse
operation, whereby a byte stream is converted back into an object
hierarchy."
Note that NetworkX graphs can contain any hashable Python object as
node (not just integers and strings). For arbitrary data types it may
be difficult to represent the data as text. In that case using Python
pickles to store the graph data can be used.
Format
------
See https://docs.python.org/2/library/pickle.html

----------
G : graph
A NetworkX graph
