Theorem 2pthfrgrrn 30311
Description: Between any two (different) vertices in a friendship graph is a 2-path (path of length 2), see Proposition 1(b) of [MertziosUnger] p. 153 : "A friendship graph G ..., as well as the distance between any two nodes in G is at most two". (Contributed by Alexander van der Vekens, 15-Nov-2017.) (Revised by AV, 1-Apr-2021.)
