r"""Returns the LFR benchmark graph.
This algorithm proceeds as follows:
1) Find a degree sequence with a power law distribution, and minimum
value ``min_degree``, which has approximate average degree
``average_degree``. This is accomplished by either
a) specifying ``min_degree`` and not ``average_degree``,
b) specifying ``average_degree`` and not ``min_degree``, in which
case a suitable minimum degree will be found.
``max_degree`` can also be specified, otherwise it will be set to
``n``. Each node *u* will have $\mu \mathrm{deg}(u)$ edges
joining it to nodes in communities other than its own and $(1 -
\mu) \mathrm{deg}(u)$ edges joining it to nodes in its own
community.
2) Generate community sizes according to a power law distribution
with exponent ``tau2``. If ``min_community`` and
``max_community`` are not specified they will be selected to be
``min_degree`` and ``max_degree``, respectively. Community sizes
are generated until the sum of their sizes equals ``n``.
3) Each node will be randomly assigned a community with the
condition that the community is large enough for the node's
intra-community degree, $(1 - \mu) \mathrm{deg}(u)$ as
described in step 2. If a community grows too large, a random node
will be selected for reassignment to a new community, until all
nodes have been assigned a community.
4) Each node *u* then adds $(1 - \mu) \mathrm{deg}(u)$
intra-community edges and $\mu \mathrm{deg}(u)$ inter-community
edges.
Parameters
----------
n : int
Number of nodes in the created graph.
tau1 : float
Power law exponent for the degree distribution of the created

tau2 : float

mu : float
Fraction of inter-community edges incident to each node. This
value must be in the interval [0, 1].
average_degree : float
Desired average degree of nodes in the created graph. This value
must be in the interval [0, *n*]. Exactly one of this and
``min_degree`` must be specified, otherwise a
:exc:`NetworkXError` is raised.
min_degree : int
Minimum degree of nodes in the created graph. This value must be
in the interval [0, *n*]. Exactly one of this and
``average_degree`` must be specified, otherwise a
:exc:`NetworkXError` is raised.
max_degree : int
Maximum degree of nodes in the created graph. If not specified,
this is set to ``n``, the total number of nodes in the graph.
min_community : int
Minimum size of communities in the graph. If not specified, this
is set to ``min_degree``.
max_community : int
Maximum size of communities in the graph. If not specified, this
is set to ``n``, the total number of nodes in the graph.
tol : float
Tolerance when comparing floats, specifically when comparing
average degree values.
max_iters : int
Maximum number of iterations to try to create the community sizes,
degree distribution, and community affiliations.
seed : integer, random_state, or None (default)
Indicator of random number generation state.
See :ref:`Randomness<randomness>`.
Returns
-------
G : NetworkX graph
The LFR benchmark graph generated according to the specified
parameters.
Each node in the graph has a node attribute ``'community'`` that
stores the community (that is, the set of nodes) that includes
it.
Raises
------
NetworkXError
If any of the parameters do not meet their upper and lower bounds:
- ``tau1`` and ``tau2`` must be strictly greater than 1.
- ``mu`` must be in [0, 1].
- ``max_degree`` must be in {1, ..., *n*}.
- ``min_community`` and ``max_community`` must be in {0, ...,
*n*}.
If not exactly one of ``average_degree`` and ``min_degree`` is
specified.
If ``min_degree`` is not specified and a suitable ``min_degree``
cannot be found.
ExceededMaxIterations
If a valid degree sequence cannot be created within
``max_iters`` number of iterations.
If a valid set of community sizes cannot be created within
``max_iters`` number of iterations.
If a valid community assignment cannot be created within ``10 *
n * max_iters`` number of iterations.
Examples
--------
Basic usage::
>>> from networkx.generators.community import LFR_benchmark_graph
>>> n = 250
>>> tau1 = 3
>>> tau2 = 1.5
>>> mu = 0.1
>>> G = LFR_benchmark_graph(
... n, tau1, tau2, mu, average_degree=5, min_community=20, seed=10
... )
Continuing the example above, you can get the communities from the
node attributes of the graph::
>>> communities = {frozenset(G.nodes[v]["community"]) for v in G}
Notes
-----
This algorithm differs slightly from the original way it was
presented in [1].
1) Rather than connecting the graph via a configuration model then
rewiring to match the intra-community and inter-community
degrees, we do this wiring explicitly at the end, which should be
equivalent.
2) The code posted on the author's website [2] calculates the random
power law distributed variables and their average using
continuous approximations, whereas we use the discrete
distributions here as both degree and community size are
discrete.
Though the authors describe the algorithm as quite robust, testing
during development indicates that a somewhat narrower parameter set
is likely to successfully produce a graph. Some suggestions have
been provided in the event of exceptions.
