| flow_func : function |
| A function for computing the maximum flow among a pair of nodes |

| And return a residual network that follows NetworkX conventions |

| Notes |
| ----- |
| The function used in the flow_func parameter has to return a residual |
| network that follows NetworkX conventions: |
| |
| The residual network :samp:`R` from an input graph :samp:`G` has the |
| same nodes as :samp:`G`. :samp:`R` is a DiGraph that contains a pair |
| of edges :samp:`(u, v)` and :samp:`(v, u)` iff :samp:`(u, v)` is not a |
| self-loop, and at least one of :samp:`(u, v)` and :samp:`(v, u)` exists |
| in :samp:`G`. |
| |
| For each edge :samp:`(u, v)` in :samp:`R`, :samp:`R[u][v]['capacity']` |
| is equal to the capacity of :samp:`(u, v)` in :samp:`G` if it exists |
| in :samp:`G` or zero otherwise. If the capacity is infinite, |
| :samp:`R[u][v]['capacity']` will have a high arbitrary finite value |
| that does not affect the solution of the problem. This value is stored in |
| :samp:`R.graph['inf']`. For each edge :samp:`(u, v)` in :samp:`R`, |
| :samp:`R[u][v]['flow']` represents the flow function of :samp:`(u, v)` and |
| satisfies :samp:`R[u][v]['flow'] == -R[v][u]['flow']`. |
| |
| The flow value, defined as the total flow into :samp:`t`, the sink, is |
| stored in :samp:`R.graph['flow_value']`. Reachability to :samp:`t` using |
| only edges :samp:`(u, v)` such that |
| :samp:`R[u][v]['flow'] < R[u][v]['capacity']` induces a minimum |
| :samp:`s`-:samp:`t` cut. |
| |
| Specific algorithms may store extra data in :samp:`R`. |
| |
| The function should supports an optional boolean parameter value_only. When |
| True, it can optionally terminate the algorithm as soon as the maximum flow |
| value and the minimum cut can be determined. |
| |
| Note that the resulting maximum flow may contain flow cycles, |
| back-flow to the source, or some flow exiting the sink. |
| These are possible if there are cycles in the network. |
| |
