As reported by @TomGoertzen in #545, our attribute
HamiltonianPath
only looks for and returns Hamiltonian cycles, even though the more general notion of a Hamiltonian path that is not necessarily a cycle does exist (see e.g. beloved Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamiltonian_path).Accordingly I've renamed
HamiltonianPath
toHamiltonianCycle
in this PR. I will also separately create an issue to implement a newHamiltonianPath
that returns a Hamiltonian path, and would work for e.g. a chain digraph. Update: that issue is #825.Resolves #545 (pending release of Digraphs 2.0).
