Description
Return their sum and otherVertices as increment.
A graph's degree records how many edge incidences meet a vertex. Directed edges distinguish incoming and outgoing incidences, while loops and parallel edges require explicit counting conventions; a local degree formula does not reconstruct a graph.
Return their sum and otherVertices as increment.
When to use this tool
Use Graph Join One Node Degree Increment when you need a degree or incidence calculation under the stated graph convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter degree, otherVertices. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read degree, increment. Use the output convention below.
Require nonnegative integer degree and otherVertices. Return their sum and otherVertices as increment.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| degree | Degree | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| otherVertices | Other Vertices | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| degree | Degree | Required. Safe integer. |
| increment | Increment | Required. Safe integer. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This is one local graph-join degree rule under supplied counts; no vertex disjointness, original adjacency, loop policy, or actual graph mutation is verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Build an adjacency structure and count actual incidences when a full graph is available. Validate loop, multiplicity, direction, and vertex-set assumptions before applying a simple-graph identity.
