r"""Generators for cographs

A cograph is a graph containing no path on four vertices.
Cographs or $P_4$-free graphs can be obtained from a single vertex
by disjoint union and complementation operations.

    r"""Returns a random cograph with $2 ^ n$ nodes.

    A cograph is a graph containing no path on four vertices.
    Cographs or $P_4$-free graphs can be obtained from a single vertex
    by disjoint union and complementation operations.

    This generator starts off from a single vertex and performs disjoint
    union and full join operations on itself.
    The decision on which operation will take place is random.

    Parameters
    ----------
    n : int
        The order of the cograph.
    seed : integer, random_state, or None (default)
        Indicator of random number generation state.
        See :ref:`Randomness<randomness>`.

    Returns
    -------
    G : A random graph containing no path on four vertices.
