// For example, this will create an empty node.

// Every node will be given a unique identifier, that is returned by #createNode() as a convenience.
// Lets create two nodes with an empty array as data, 
// and lets store ids to use them later.
var id1 = graph.createNode([]);
var id2 = graph.createNode([]);

// Now we can use id1 and id2 to refer to the nodes,
// for example we can create an edge joining the nodes.
