<p> This class template implements a generator for Erd&ouml;s-Renyi
graphs, suitable for initializing an <a
href="adjacency_list.html"><tt>adjacency_list</tt></a> or other graph
structure with iterator-based initialization. An Erd&ouml;s-Renyi
graph <em>G = (n, p)</em> is a graph with <em>n</em> vertices
that. The probability of having an edge <em>(u, v)</em> in <em>G</em>
is <em>p</em> for any vertices <em>u</em> and <em>v</em>. Typically,
there are no self-loops, but the generator can optionally introduce
self-loops with probability <em>p</em>.</p>

<p>Erd&ouml;s-Renyi graphs typically exhibit very little
structure. For this reason, they are rarely useful in modeling
real-world problems. However, they are often used when determining
the theoretical complexity of complex graph algorithms.</p>

<blockquote>
Constructs a past-the-end iterator.

sorted_erdos_renyi_iterator(RandomGenerator&amp; gen, vertices_size_type n,
                            double probability = 0.0, bool allow_self_loops = false);
</pre>
<blockquote>
Constructs an Erd&ouml;s-Renyi generator iterator that creates a
graph with <tt>n</tt> vertices and a given <tt>probability</tt> of the
total number of edges that a simple graph may have.
<tt>probability</tt>. Random vertices and edges are selected using the
random number generator <tt>gen</tt>. Self-loops are permitted only when
<tt>allow_self_loops</tt> is <tt>true</tt>.
