Exactly, but the sequence has to be discovered by the piece of code ! > Does this "then" imply you're only interested in loops occurring in this > *sequence*, i.e., is order of connections important?

Yes, it would be nice to detect it as a loop, with for example a threshold. Btw, it would be nice to ignore additional connections in such a way : B->C # Normal connection D->E # Additional connection to ignore A->B # Normal connection C->A # Normal connection Would it be possible ?
