# resource_allocation_index¶

Compute the resource allocation index of all node pairs in ebunch.

Resource allocation index of and is defined as

where denotes the set of neighbors of .

Parameters: G (graph) – A NetworkX undirected graph. ebunch (iterable of node pairs, optional (default = None)) – Resource allocation index will be computed for each pair of nodes given in the iterable. The pairs must be given as 2-tuples (u, v) where u and v are nodes in the graph. If ebunch is None then all non-existent edges in the graph will be used. Default value: None. piter – An iterator of 3-tuples in the form (u, v, p) where (u, v) is a pair of nodes and p is their resource allocation index. iterator

Examples

>>> import networkx as nx
>>> G = nx.complete_graph(5)
>>> preds = nx.resource_allocation_index(G, [(0, 1), (2, 3)])
>>> for u, v, p in preds:
...     '(%d, %d) -> %.8f' % (u, v, p)
...
'(0, 1) -> 0.75000000'
'(2, 3) -> 0.75000000'
