vertexConnectivity -- computes the vertex connectivity of a graph

Synopsis

Description

The vertex connectivity of a graph is the smallest amount of vertices that need be removed from a graph to make it not connected or have one vertex. This corresponds to the size of the smallest vertex cut. A not connected graph has connectivity equal to 0.
