◊ DID YOU MEAN CLIQUE?
clique
A {maximal} {totally connected} {subgraph}.
Given a {graph} with {nodes} N, a clique C is a {subset} of N
where every node in C is directly connected to every other
node in C (i.e. C is totally connected), and C contains all
such nodes (C is maximal). In other words, a clique contains
all, and only, those nodes which are directly connected to all
other nodes in the clique.
[Is this correct?]
