Please ignore that message, my mistake. The results do indeed differ across 
runs so everything works fine.

Best,

Subject: RE: [graph-tool] How are samples drawn for distance_histogram?

I am drawing a sample of 3% from a network of 12 million vertices. From what I 
can tell the histogram and the average path length computed for it are 
identical between the two runs though. I would expect to see some degree of 
fluctuation at least if I am sampling different vertices in different runs or 
do you think this is an unreasonable assumption?

Best,

Philipp

Yes, of course.
