def rich_club_coefficient(G, normalized=True, Q=100):
"""Return the rich-club coefficient of the graph G.
The rich-club coefficient is the ratio, for every degree k, of the
number of actual to the number of potential edges for nodes
with degree greater than k:
.. math::
\\phi(k) = \\frac{2 Ek}{Nk(Nk-1)}
where Nk is the number of nodes with degree larger than k, and Ek
be the number of edges among those nodes.
Parameters
----------
G : NetworkX graph
normalized : bool (optional)
Normalize using randomized network (see [1]_)
Q : float (optional, default=100)
If normalized=True build a random network by performing
Q*M double-edge swaps, where M is the number of edges in G,
to use as a null-model for normalization.
Returns
-------
rc : dictionary
A dictionary, keyed by degree, with rich club coefficient values.
Examples
--------
>>> G = nx.Graph([(0,1),(0,2),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(4,5)])
>>> rc = nx.rich_club_coefficient(G,normalized=False)
>>> rc[0] # doctest: +SKIP
0.4
Notes
------
The rich club definition and algorithm are found in [1]_. This
algorithm ignores any edge weights and is not defined for directed
graphs or graphs with parallel edges or self loops.
Estimates for appropriate values of Q are found in [2]_.
