Comment (by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:8 ncohen]:
 > > A degenerate input is a corner case: one-element hypergraphs and
 complete uniform hypergraphs are surely degenerate inputs. Such tests
 don't stress much of the implementation, as you can imagine.

 an element belongs to a LIST ?
 Good doctests should test the function as if it were a blackbox.
 The underlying implementation might change, might become more
 sophisticated, and the doctests should catch bugs in such future changes.
 Unless you prefer bug-driven development model to the test-driven one ;-)
