r"""Computes the node redundancy coefficients for the nodes in the bipartite
graph `G`.
The redundancy coefficient of a node `v` is the fraction of pairs of
neighbors of `v` that are both linked to other nodes. In a one-mode
projection these nodes would be linked together even if `v` were
not there.
More formally, for any vertex `v`, the *redundancy coefficient of `v`* is
defined by
.. math::
rc(v) = \frac{|\{\{u, w\} \subseteq N(v),
\: \exists v' \neq v,\: (v',u) \in E\:
\mathrm{and}\: (v',w) \in E\}|}{ \frac{|N(v)|(|N(v)|-1)}{2}},
where `N(v)` is the set of neighbors of `v` in `G`.
Parameters
----------
G : graph
A bipartite graph
nodes : list or iterable (optional)
Compute redundancy for these nodes. The default is all nodes in G.
Returns
-------
redundancy : dictionary
A dictionary keyed by node with the node redundancy value.
Examples
--------
Compute the redundancy coefficient of each node in a graph::
>>> import networkx as nx
>>> from networkx.algorithms import bipartite
>>> G = nx.cycle_graph(4)
>>> rc = bipartite.node_redundancy(G)
>>> rc[0]
1.0
Compute the average redundancy for the graph::
>>> import networkx as nx
>>> from networkx.algorithms import bipartite
>>> G = nx.cycle_graph(4)
>>> rc = bipartite.node_redundancy(G)
>>> sum(rc.values()) / len(G)
1.0
Compute the average redundancy for a set of nodes::
>>> import networkx as nx
>>> from networkx.algorithms import bipartite
>>> G = nx.cycle_graph(4)
>>> rc = bipartite.node_redundancy(G)
>>> nodes = [0, 2]
>>> sum(rc[n] for n in nodes) / len(nodes)
1.0
Raises
------
NetworkXError
If any of the nodes in the graph (or in `nodes`, if specified) has
(out-)degree less than two (which would result in division by zero,
according to the definition of the redundancy coefficient).
