Returns the number of arcs of Central Similarity Proximity Catch Digraphs (CS-PCDs) whose
vertices are a 1D numerical data set, Xp
, outside the interval int
\(=(a,b)\).
CS proximity region is constructed only with expansion parameter \(t>0\) for points outside the interval \((a,b)\).
End vertex regions are based on the end points of the interval,
i.e., the corresponding end vertex region is an interval as \((-\infty,a)\) or \((b,\infty)\) for the interval \((a,b)\).
For the number of arcs, loops are not allowed, so arcs are only possible for points outside
the interval, int
, for this function.
