Let the maximum and minimum degress of a graph be denoted (as usual) by $\Delta$ and $\delta$ respectively.
A graph is almost regular if $\Delta-\delta=1$.
Now, here is a simple way to generate such graphs: start with a regular graph and delete a matching. Either that or add a matching.
An almost regular graph which is produced from a regular graph by the addition or removal of a mathingmatching is obvious.
Can you find examples of non-obvious almost regular graphs? So far, I am unable to produce any but I have a feeling there ought to be some.
A follow-up question, in case non-obvious ones do exist, would of course be to estimate which case is more prevalent.
