def min_weighted_vertex_cover(G, weight=None, sampler=None, lagrange=2.0, **sampler_args):
"""Returns an approximate minimum weighted vertex cover.
Defines a QUBO with ground states corresponding to a minimum weighted
vertex cover and uses the sampler to sample from it.
A vertex cover is a set of vertices such that each edge of the graph
is incident with at least one vertex in the set. A minimum weighted
vertex cover is the vertex cover of minimum total node weight.
Parameters
----------
G : NetworkX graph
weight : string, optional (default None)
If None, every node has equal weight. If a string, use this node
attribute as the node weight. A node without this attribute is
assumed to have max weight.
sampler
A binary quadratic model sampler. A sampler is a process that
samples from low energy states in models defined by an Ising
equation or a Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization
Problem (QUBO). A sampler is expected to have a 'sample_qubo'
and 'sample_ising' method. A sampler is expected to return an
iterable of samples, in order of increasing energy. If no
sampler is provided, one must be provided using the
`set_default_sampler` function.
lagrange : optional (default 2)
Lagrange parameter to weight constraints versus objective.
sampler_args
Additional keyword parameters are passed to the sampler.
Returns
-------
vertex_cover : list
List of nodes that the form a the minimum weighted vertex cover, as
determined by the given sampler.
Notes
-----
Samplers by their nature may not return the optimal solution. This
function does not attempt to confirm the quality of the returned
sample.

"""Returns an approximate minimum vertex cover.
Defines a QUBO with ground states corresponding to a minimum

A vertex cover is a set of vertices such that each edge of the graph
is incident with at least one vertex in the set. A minimum vertex cover
is the vertex cover of smallest size.
Parameters
----------
G : NetworkX graph
The graph on which to find a minimum vertex cover.

Returns
-------
vertex_cover : list
List of nodes that form a minimum vertex cover, as
determined by the given sampler.
Examples
--------
This example uses a sampler from
`dimod <https://github.com/dwavesystems/dimod>`_ to find a minimum vertex
cover for a Chimera unit cell. Both the horizontal (vertices 0,1,2,3) and
vertical (vertices 4,5,6,7) tiles connect to all 16 edges, so repeated
executions can return either set.
>>> import dwave_networkx as dnx
>>> import dimod
>>> sampler = dimod.ExactSolver() # small testing sampler
>>> G = dnx.chimera_graph(1, 1, 4)
>>> G.remove_node(7) # to give a unique solution
>>> dnx.min_vertex_cover(G, sampler, lagrange=2.0)

This example checks two covers for a graph, G, of a single Chimera
