Use [edge-list] for questions about creating, converting, or working in general with a list of edge nodes/vertices from a spatial network or graph. Be sure to include what language you are working with, e.g. [r].
An edge list is a list of edge nodes or vertices formatted in a tabular, graph, or other ordered layout. Sometimes referred to as an adjacency list or node list, an edge list contains all the points of a spacial network, commonly called a graph or map.
Edge lists in programming are used in R, Wolfram, and MATLAB, among others, and more broadly in computer science and mathematics in the specific fields of sorting/searching algorithms or graph traversal.
