star_graph(n)

function [A xy] = star_graph(n)
% STAR_GRAPH Generate the star graph of order n
%
% The star graph is a simple star with n vertices.  Vertex n is the center
% vertex.
%
% [A xy] = star_graph(n) generates a star graph with n vertices and
% returns the adjacency matrix in A.  The matrix xy stores two-dimensional 
% coordinates for each vertex.
%
% Example:
%   [A xy] = star_graph(10);
%   gplot(A,xy);
