[igraph] Creating new graph from existing graph with only top 10 percent of edges

[Alex Upton]

Hi all,

I have a query that hopefully will be easy to resolve. I have a weighted graph, 
g1, that has various edge weights. What I would like to do is create another 
graph, let's call it g2, that contains only the top 10 percent of the edges in 
g1, i.e. the 10 percent of edges in g1 with the highest weight. How would I go 
about doing this? Any help is gratefully appreciated.


Regards,

Alex
