radius of graph
Author: Marian Olejar, Jr. Created: May/11/2006 Last edit: May/11/2006

    graph theory:
    Radius of graph G = (V, E) is the greatest distance from central vertex to any other vertex in G. Denoted by rad(G).
    
    relation between diameter and radius:
    rad(G) `<=` diam(G) `<=` 2rad(G)
    
    relation between radius, minimum degree and maximum degree:
    rad(G) = `min_(x in V(G)) max_(y in V(G)) d_G(x,y)`
