Research direction

Start by reading SimpleWeightedGraphs.jl issue 17 and the related Graphs.jl pull requests 116 and 125. Compare the Kruskal and Prim results when applied to a SimpleWeightedGraphs graph; the work is done when both algorithms return coherent edge types, with the expected behavior aligned with the existing discussion and open pull request 172.
