met.density {ANTs} R Documentation

## Density

### Description

Calculates network binary density.

### Usage

met.density(M, df = NULL)


### Arguments

 M a square adjacency matrix, or a list of square adjacency matrices, or an output of ANT functions stat.ds.grp, stat.df.focal, stat.net.lk. df a data frame of same length as the input matrix or a list of data frames if argument M is a list of matrices or an output of ANT functions stat.ds.grp, stat.df.focal, stat.net.lk.

### Details

Binary network density is sthe ratio of existing links of a network in relation to all potential links.

### Value

• a double representing the density of the network if argument M is a square matrix.

• A list of doubles if argument M is a list of matrices and if argument df is NULL. Each double represents the density of the corresponding matrix of the list.
