<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜>### Instruction:
As a real estate developer overseeing a residential project, you are reviewing the edge list for the network of contractors and suppliers involved. In the file named 'edges.txt', there is a list of connections between various contractors and suppliers. You want to use the Read_Edgelist function in igraph to create a graph that represents these connections. It's important to specify whether the graph should be directed or undirected to accurately reflect the relationships within the network.
### Response:
import igraph as ig

# Read the edge list from a file to create a graph
data_file = 'edges.txt'  # The file containing the edge list
directed = True  # Specify if the graph is directed or not

# Create the graph from the edge list
graph = ig.Graph.Read_Edgelist(data_file, directed=directed)

# Plot the graph
ig.plot(graph)
