Visualize the degree centrality distribution of the forums projection
This exercise is also to reinforce the concepts of degree centrality and projections. This time round, you'll plot the degree centrality distribution for the 'forum' projection. Follow the same steps as in the previous exercise!
This exercise is part of the course
Intermediate Network Analysis in Python
Exercise instructions
- Get the nodes of the
'forum'partition into a list calledforum_nodes. - Create the forums nodes projection as a graph called
G_forum. - Calculate the degree centrality of
G_forumusingnx.degree_centrality(). Store the result asdcs. - Plot the histogram of degree centrality values.
