But what kind of thing would you use a general graph for?
Connectivity in networks, being anything from computers on the internet to atoms in a molecule. Most graphs are best represented as sum types (and abstract references, like identifiers) in FPLs like Haskell though, rather than using a more general representation. Abstract syntax trees in compilers and interpreters, and scene graphs in computer graphics being two obvious examples. -- Dr Jon D Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd.
