yes, I haven't thought of that
nowI changed my class to

class Graph:
	settings = {
		"NumNodes" : 10,
		"MinNodes" : 2,
		"MaxNodes" : 5
	}
	def randomizeEdges(self,
		lowhigh = (settings["MinNodes"], settings["MaxNodes"])):
		low, high = lowhigh
		for node in self.nodes:
			x = random.randint(low, high)
			# link the nodes


maybe the only minor point is that no relationship
can be expressed

settings = {
	"NumNode" : 10,
	"MinNode" : settings["NumNode"] / 2,
	"MaxNode" : settings["NumNode"]
}

but I think the solution is nevertheless ok
