+function handle = gplotg(A,xy,lc)
+% GPLOTG : Plot a "graph theoretic" graph.
+%
+%	handle = gplotg(A,xy) plots the graph specified by A and xy.
+%	A graph, G, is a set of nodes numbered from 1 to n,
+%	and a set of connections, or edges, between them.
+%	In order to plot G, two matrices are needed.
+%	The adjacency matrix, A, has a(i,j) nonzero if and
+%	only if node i is connected to node j.  The coordinates
+%	array, xy, is an n-by-2 or n-by-3  matrix with the position 
+%       for node i in the i-th row, xy(i,:) = [x(i) y(i)],
+%                               or  xy(i,:) = [x(i) y(i) z(i)].
+%	
+%	gplotg(A,xy,lc) uses line type and color instead of the 
+%	default, 'r-'.   For example, lc = 'g:'.  See PLOT.
+%
+%       Unlike gplot, gplotg sets 'erasemode' to 'none'
+%       so a graph won't redraw if something is drawn over it.
+%       Also, gplotg returns the handle to the plot.
+%       Also, gplotg can handle graphs with 3D coordinates.

+% Determine if a graph is connected
+% Idea by Ed Scheinerman, circa 2006, source: http://www.ams.jhu.edu/~ers/matgraph/
+%                                     routine: matgraph/@graph/isconnected.m
+%
+% INPUTS: adjacency matrix, nxn
+% OUTPUTS: Boolean variable, 0 or 1

+% Note: This function works only for undirected graphs.

+% If the algebraic connectivity is > 0 then the graph is connected

+% Uses the fact that multiplying the adj matrix to itself k times give the
+% number of ways to get from i to j in k steps. If the end of the
+% multiplication in the sum of all matrices there are 0 entries then the
+% graph is disconnected. Computationally intensive, but can be sped up by

+% will terminate in order of log(n)? steps.

+\textbullet & Provide both executable package and sources (e.g. C/C++ files, Matlab). 
+If you are using libraries, please add them in the file. Sources must be organized in directories called:\\
+\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{\textit{Project\_number\_lastname\_firstname}}\\
+& and  the  file must be called:\\
+\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{\textit{project\_number\_lastname\_firstname.zip}}\\
+\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{\textit{project\_number\_lastname\_firstname.pdf}}\\
+\textbullet &  The TAs will grade your project by reviewing your project write-up, and looking at the implementation 
+                 you attempted, and benchmarking your code's performance.\\
+
+\textbullet & You are allowed to discuss all questions with anyone you like; however: (i) your submission must list anyone you discussed problems with and (ii) you must write up your submission independently.\\
