I am new to latex. Actually i am using pre defined template for making graphs for my Advanced Algo Course.
Here is my code for drawing graph within a square. 

\begin{figure}
\begin{tikzpicture}[scale=1.8, auto,swap]
    % Draw a 7,11 network
    % First we draw the vertices
    \foreach \pos/\name in {{(3,2)/a}, {(2,1)/c}, {(3,1)/b},
                            {(4,1)/d},{(5,1)/e},{(1,0)/f},{(2,0)/g},{(6,0)/h}}
        \node[vertex] (\name) at \pos {$\name$};

    % Connect vertices with edges and draw weights
   \foreach \source/ \dest /\weight/\pos in {c/a,
                                         d/a,
                                         b/a,
                                         e/a,a/c,c/f,c/g,e/h}
        \path[edge] (\source) -- (\dest);
    \draw (0,-0.3) -- (6.4,-0.3) -- (6.4,1.8) -- (0,1.8) -- (0,-0.3);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{figure}

\end{frame}

Problem:
First Image is where i want to place my graph. And second image is where my graph is being wrongly placed.enter image description here

    if you just used tikzpicture then the picture would stay where you put it, the only reason to put something in figure is to allow latex to move it to help with page breaking, so it's working as designed but you could use \begin{figure}[htbp] to also allow it to try h (here) – David Carlisle Oct 21 '16 at 06:43

    In other words, the floats have the bad habit of floating :) Usually is better use the figure float because often the alternative is left ungraceful half-filled pages when an image does not fit at the end of the page. But you can change a bit the float's bevhaviour (see here) and use cross-references when is not posiblle place the figures whitin their section. – Fran Oct 21 '16 at 09:58
