 """Add a single node n and update node attributes. Parameters n : node A node can be any hashable Python object except None. layers : set of str or None the set of layers the node belongs to, e.g. {'tiger:token', 'anaphoricity:annotation'}. Will be set to {self.ns} if None. attr_dict : dictionary, optional (default= no attributes) Dictionary of node attributes. Key/value pairs will update existing data associated with the node. attr : keyword arguments, optional Set or change attributes using key=value. See Also -------- add_nodes_from Examples -------- # adding the same node with a different layer [(1, {'layers': {'node', 'number'}})] Use keywords set/change node attributes: [(1, {'layers': {'node', 'number'}, 'size': 10}), (3, {'UTM': ('13S', 382), 'layers': {'num'}, 'weight': 0.4})] Notes ----- A hashable object is one that can be used as a key in a Python dictionary. This includes strings, numbers, tuples of strings and numbers, etc. On many platforms hashable items also include mutables such as NetworkX Graphs, though one should be careful that the hash doesn't change on mutables.
