Is there any condition for a graph to have a circuit that is both eulerian and hamiltonian ??

Consider the graph with n vertices. Hamiltonian circuit contains n edges. So the graph must contain only n edges. And the only way to build hamiltonial graph with n edges is take some permutation of vertices p1, p2, ..., pn and add edges p1 - p2, p2 - p3, ..., pn - 1 - pn, pn - p1. So you should just check the graph to be one big circuit.
If I haven't misunderstood the question and the answer, I think that also K5 (a clique having 5 vertices) is both Hamiltonian and Eulerian. However, it is obviously not a circuit.
// This is "true" also for K2n + 1, n ≥ 2 and many other graphs.
I think you misunderstood it, the question was whether the graph contains a cycle that is both hamiltonian and eulerian, not whether the graph contains both hamiltonian and eulerian cycles.
OK, thanks ;)
If it's really the case, the presented solution is of course OK :)
Thnx :)
