function [U,G] = surfer(root,n)
% SURFER  Create the adjacency graph of a portion of the Web.
%    [U,G] = surfer(root,n) starts at the URL root and follows
%    Web links until it forms an adjacency graph with n nodes.
%    U = a cell array of n strings, the URLs of the nodes.
%    G = an n-by-n sparse matrix with G(i,j)=1 if node j is linked to node i.
%
%    Example:  [U,G] = surfer('http://www.harvard.edu',500);
%    See also PAGERANK.
%
%    This function currently has two defects.  (1) The algorithm for
%    finding links is naive.  We just look for the string 'http:'.
%    (2) An attempt to read from a URL that is accessible, but very slow,
%    might take an unacceptably long time to complete.  In some cases,
%    it may be necessary to have the operating system terminate MATLAB.
%    Key words from such URLs can be added to the skip list in surfer.m.
