GSP_ERDOS_RENYI - Create a random Erdos Renyi graph

Program code:

function [ G ] = gsp_erdos_renyi( N,p,param )
%GSP_ERDOS_RENYI Create a random Erdos Renyi graph
%   Usage:  G = gsp_erdos_renyi( N,p,param );
%           G = gsp_erdos_renyi( N,p );
%
%   Input parameters:
%         N     : Number of nodes
%         p     : Probability of connection of a node with another
%         param : Structure of optional parameter
%   Output parameters:
%         G     : Graph structure.
%
%   'gsp_erdos_renyi( N,p,param )' initializes create a graph structure
%   containing the weighted adjacency matrix (G.W), the number of vertices
%   (G.N) for an Erdos Renyi graph. All edge weights are equal to 1. 
% 
%   The Erdos Renyi graph is constructed by connecting nodes randomly. Each 
%   edge is included in the graph with probability p independent from every
%   other edge. 
%
%   param a Matlab structure containing the following fields:
%
%      param.connected : flag to force the graph to be connected. By
%       default, it is 0.
%
%      param.maxit : is the maximum number of try to connect the graph. 
%       By default, it is 10.
% 
%      param.verbose : 0 no log, 1 print main steps, 2 print all steps.
%       By default, it is 1.
%
%   Example:
%
%        G = gsp_erdos_renyi(100,0.05)
