Introduction

Plotting algorithms, also known as graph drawing or graph layout algorithms, are techniques used to generate visually appealing and informative representations of graph-structured data. The primary goal of these algorithms is to produce a layout that clearly reveals the underlying structure and relationships between nodes in the graph while minimizing visual clutter, such as edge crossings, node overlaps, and edge length variations.
