igraph (version 0.4.3)

degree: Degree and degree distribution of the vertices

Description

The degree of a vertex is its most basic structural property, the number of its adjacent edges.

Usage

degree(graph, v=V(graph), mode = "total", loops = TRUE) 
degree.distribution(graph, cumulative = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

graph

The graph to analyze.

v

The ids of vertices of which the degree will be calculated.

mode

Character string, out for out-degree, in for in-degree or total for the sum of the two. For undirected graphs this argument is ignored.

loops

Logical; whether the loop edges are also counted.

cumulative

Logical; whether the cumulative degree distribution is to be calculated.

...

Additional arguments to pass to degree, eg. mode is useful but also v and loops make sense.

Value

• For degree a numeric vector of the same length as argument v.

  For degree.distribution a numeric vector of the same length as the maximum degree plus one. The first element is the relative frequency zero degree vertices, the second vertices with degree one, etc.

Examples

g <- graph.ring(10)
degree(g)
g2 <- erdos.renyi.game(1000, 10/1000)
degree.distribution(g2)
