inflexibility_factor

Calculates the inflexibility factor for courses that have specific offering times extending chains beyond the
expected time to degree.

Enables educational researchers and practitioners to calculate the curricular complexity of a plan of study, visualize its prerequisite structure at scale, and conduct customizable analyses. The original tool can be found at <https://curricularanalytics.org>. Additional functions to explore curriculum complexity from the literature are also included.
