Comment (by ncohen):
> "certificate=" is misleading. This triple of numbers is called
"parameters".
> I propose the optional argument be renamed so.
Hmmmm... Actually I wrote ``certificate = True`` because maaaaaaaaany
Graph functions now have a "certificate" parameter that gives more
information when the function is expected to return True/False answers.
For instance is_bipartite(certificate = True) would return bipartitions or
odd cycles, is_directed_acyclic would return a linear extension or a
circuit, things like that. I agree that "certificate" is a bit weird in
this context, but this is the reason why I named it like that.
Now that I gave you this reason tell me if you still want me to rename it
to "parameters". If I did not convince you then the users will not find it
convincing either and the best is to change it, and otherwise I will let
it stay like that `:-)`
