causal_networkx.graphs.dag.DAG.children

DAG.children(n)

Return an iterator over children of node n.

Children of node ‘n’ are nodes with a directed edge from ‘n’ to that node. For example, ‘n’ -> ‘x’, ‘n’ -> ‘y’. Nodes only connected via a bidirected edge are not considered children: ‘n’ <-> ‘y’.

Parameters:

n : node

A node in the causal DAG.

Returns:

children : Iterator

An iterator of the children of node ‘n’.
