Outdegree

This metric is implemented in every version.



The Outdegree of a node is the number of its outgoing edges.

Objective

The Outdegree d_O(n_i) \,\! of a node n_i\,\! is the number of all nodes in which n_i\,\! terminates [1].

This measure is a specialized variant of Degree.

Calculation

The Outdegree is equal to the number of edges l_k \langle n_i,n_j \rangle\,\! for l_k \in L and n_j, n_i \in N, where N\,\! is a set of nodes and L\,\! a set of edges of a network.

Statement

R-example
library(igraph)
g <- graph.ring(10)
degree(g, mode = c("out"))
