def reciprocity(G, nodes=None):
r"""Compute the reciprocity in a directed graph.
The reciprocity of a directed graph is defined as the ratio
of the number of edges pointing in both directions to the total
number of edges in the graph.
Formally, $r = |{(u,v) \in G|(v,u) \in G}| / |{(u,v) \in G}|$.
The reciprocity of a single node u is defined similarly,
it is the ratio of the number of edges in both directions to
the total number of edges attached to node u.
Parameters
----------
G : graph
A networkx directed graph
nodes : container of nodes, optional (default=whole graph)
Compute reciprocity for nodes in this container.
Returns
-------
out : dictionary
Reciprocity keyed by node label.
Notes
-----
The reciprocity is not defined for isolated nodes.
In such cases this function will return None.
