In what follows below e denotes the number of edges, #cp the number of distinct pairs of characteristic polynomials corresponding to G and its complement, #with mate the number of graphs G such that both G and its complement have cospectral mates, and maxsz is the maximum number of graphs G for which G and its complement have the same pair of characteristic polynomials (P,Q) say.
