实现这一目标的方法多种多样。它看起来像是用图论的术语
igraph
circles <- list(1:3, 2:4) # Friendship circles with identities 1, ..., n
n <- max(unlist(circles)) # Total number of people
nM <- matrix(0, n, n) # n x n matrix of zeroes
那么
adjs <- lapply(circles, function(cr) {nM[cr, cr] <- 1; nM[cbind(cr, cr)] <- 0; nM})
是每个友谊圈的n x n邻接矩阵的列表(每种情况下大多为零)。
(adj1 <- Reduce(`+`, adjs))
# [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
# [1,] 0 1 1 0
# [2,] 1 0 2 1
# [3,] 1 2 0 1
# [4,] 0 1 1 0
(adj2 <- 1 * (adj1 > 0))
# [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
# [1,] 0 1 1 0
# [2,] 1 0 1 1
# [3,] 1 1 0 1
# [4,] 0 1 1 0
