Important:The networks package has been deprecated. Use the superseding command GraphTheory[MaximumDegree]instead.

The total number of edges (undirected, including loops) incident at each vertex is computed, and the maximum returned.

If vname is specified, a vertex of max degree is returned as vname.

This routine is normally loaded via the command with(networks) but may also be referenced using the full name networks[maxdegree](...).
