[First task] Install networkx on your computer and create a PR to this repository

[MridulS]

[Everyone can do this task. There is no need to claim/assign this issue]

As the first task, install networkx locally on your computer and make sure you can import it inside your python environment.

>>> import networkx as nx
>>> print(nx.__version__)
<note down this output>

Now create a pull request on GitHub against this repository (https://github.com/networkx/outreachy), first Fork this repository by clicking on the Fork button on the upper right corner on the GitHub UI. Once you have forked the repository, download the repository locally (you would need to install git locally). If you are new to git and github you can go through an introductory video to better understand the git development workflow.

git clone git@github.com:your-github-username/outreachy.git

Go to the current round directory (2023-round-2) and then create a new folder using your github username.

cd outreachy/2023-round-2
mkdir your-github-username

Create a new file inside the new directory your-github-username you just created and call it nx_version.txt

Put the output of print(nx.__version__) inside the file nx_version.txt and commit it locally using git, push your changes to github and create a pull request against this repository.

As an example, we expect you to add something like this to the repository https://github.com/networkx/outreachy/tree/main/2023-round-2/MridulS to successfully complete this task.

Hi, I am Purvi Chaurasia, a second year CSAI student at IGDTUW. @MridulS I have successfully completed the first task however, I noticed that your version of NetworkX is 3.0, and for me it is showing 2.5. Is this an issue and should I work on an updated version?

[Ruchi-here]

@PurviChaurasia, you can update the current version through this command : pip install --upgrade networkx[default]

I think it is better to have an updated version

[devotuoma]

Hello? This is Erick as of now we can only work on the first task alone.

[PurviChaurasia]

The introductory video given by @MridulS helped me a lot, perhaps check that out.

That means you have an old python version. Please make sure you are using atleast python 3.8 to make it work with NetworkX version 3.0

[PurviChaurasia]

Yep it works now, thanks :)
