Degree, closeness & betweenness

We will examine the well-known Kite network introduced by Krackhardt in 1988. The name stems from the fact that the network structure resembles a kite. Let’s now calculate some of the centrality measures, such as degree, closeness and betweenness, that we discussed before. The kite-network kite and the igraph library are already loaded in your workspace.
