In this paper, we investigate a measure of similarity of graphs similar to the Ramsey number. We present values and bounds for $g(n,l)$, the biggest number $k$ guaranteeing that there exist $l$ graphs on $n$ vertices, each two having edit distance at least $k$. By edit distance of two graphs $G$, $F$ we mean the number of edges needed to be added to or deleted from graph $G$ to obtain graph $F$. This new extremal number $g(n,l)$ is closely linked to the edit distance of graphs. Using probabilistic methods we show that $g(n,l)$ is close...
