I quite agree about the DiscreteMath`Combinatorica` documentation. It's especially frustrating when, after using "?" for information on one of its functions and clicking on the "More..." hyperlink , what one gets as target is the very top of the DiscreteMath`Combinatorica` package documentation rather than help on the specific function. What may be of some use is my notebook Graphs.nb, downloadable from the Files page at: http://www.math.umass.edu/Courses/Math_455_Eisenberg/ That is documentation my Discrete Structures students have used. Originally I prepared it to document Pemmaraju & Skiena's "New" Combinatorica package before it became the Standard AddOn DiscreteMath`Combinatorica`. (I updated it as necessary.) P.S. Amazon.com is already accepting orders for Pemmaraju & Skiena's "Computational Discrete Mathematics: Combinatorics and Graph Theory with Mathematica" and is listing an August 3 shipping date.
