2. Select your operating system

How to use tnet

To activate the package, you need to type the following in R everytime you start R:

library(tnet)

Then, you should be able to use the functions available within tnet.

To calculate the degree of an edgelist, you use the function called degree_w, e.g.

## Define edgelist
sample <- rbind(
c(1,2,4),
c(1,3,2),
c(2,1,4),
c(2,3,4),
c(2,4,1),
c(2,5,2),
c(3,1,2),
c(3,2,4),
c(4,2,1),
c(5,2,2),
c(5,6,1),
c(6,5,1))

## To calculate degree
degree_w(sample)

     vertex degree output 
[1,]      1      2      6 
[2,]      2      4     11 
[3,]      3      2      6 
[4,]      4      1      1 
[5,]      5      2      3 
[6,]      6      1      1
