\title{Generate random graphs according to the Erdős-Rényi model}
\usage{
erdos.renyi.game(
  n,
  p.or.m,
  type = c("gnp", "gnm"),
  directed = FALSE,
  loops = FALSE
)
}
\arguments{
\item{n}{The number of vertices in the graph.}

\item{p.or.m}{Either the probability for drawing an edge between two
arbitrary vertices (\eqn{G(n,p)} graph), or the number of edges in
the graph (for \eqn{G(n,m)} graphs).}

\item{type}{The type of the random graph to create, either \code{gnp()}
(\eqn{G(n,p)} graph) or \code{gnm()} (\eqn{G(n,m)} graph).}

\item{directed}{Logical, whether the graph will be directed, defaults to
\code{FALSE}.}

\item{loops}{Logical, whether to add loop edges, defaults to \code{FALSE}.}
}
\value{
A graph object.
}

\ifelse{html}{\href{https://lifecycle.r-lib.org/articles/stages.html#deprecated}{\figure{lifecycle-deprecated.svg}{options: alt='[Deprecated]'}}}{\strong{[Deprecated]}}

Since igraph version 0.8.0, both \code{erdos.renyi.game()} and
\code{random.graph.game()} are deprecated, and \code{\link[=sample_gnp]{sample_gnp()}} and
\code{\link[=sample_gnm]{sample_gnm()}} should be used instead. See these for more details.

\code{random.graph.game()} is an (also deprecated) alias to this function.
