Generate a graph corresponding to a triangular grid

Contributed by: Anton Antonov

ResourceFunction["TriangularLatticeGraph"][n]

returns a triangular lattice graph with dimensions n×n.

ResourceFunction["TriangularLatticeGraph"][{rows,columns}]

returns a triangular lattice graph with dimensions rows×columns.

Details and Options

ResourceFunction["TriangularLatticeGraph"] takes the same options as Graph.

Examples

Basic Examples (1) 

A 4×7 hexagonal grid graph:

In[1]:=
ResourceFunction[ CloudObject[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/antononcube/DeployedResources/Function/TriangularLatticeGraph"]][{4, 7}]
Out[1]=

Scope (3) 

Using only one argument:

In[2]:=
ResourceFunction[ CloudObject[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/antononcube/DeployedResources/Function/TriangularLatticeGraph"]][4]
Out[2]=

Use a different graph embedding:

In[3]:=
ResourceFunction[ CloudObject[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/antononcube/DeployedResources/Function/TriangularLatticeGraph"]][{12, 8}, GraphLayout -> "SpringElectricalEmbedding", VertexCoordinates -> Automatic]
Out[3]=

Use a different plot theme:

In[4]:=
ResourceFunction[ CloudObject[ "https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/antononcube/DeployedResources/Function/TriangularLatticeGraph"]][{18, 18}, PlotTheme -> "LargeGraph"]
Out[4]=

Applications (1) 

Make a (full) triangular grid graph with vertices that are the centers of a hexagonal graph:
