wheel_graph(n)
function [A xy] = wheel_graph(n)
% WHEEL_GRAPH Construct a wheel graph of order n
%
% The wheel graph is a cycle graph of order n-1 along with an additional
% vertex that connects all the remaining vertices. (Run the example and it
% will be extremely clear if you are still confused.)
%
% [A xy] = wheel_graph(n) returns the adjacency matrix for the wheel graph
% of order n. The matrix xy stores two-dimensional coordinates for each
% vertex.
%
% Example:
% [A xy] = wheel_graph(10);
% gplot(A,xy);
%
% See also CYCLE_GRAPH, STAR_GRAPH
