Radius returns the minimum eccentricity over all vertices in the graph G.

If G is disconnected, then Radius returns infinity.

For weighted graphs the edge weights are used to denote the distance accrued while traveling along each edge.  For unweighted graphs the length of each edge is assumed to be 1.
