print("The graph has", len(G), "nodes and", len(G.edges()), "edges")
The graph has 18772 nodes and 198110 edges
7.2. Degree assortativity of a network#
Assortativity can be measured in different ways. A simple approach is measuring the average nearest neighbor degree to assess the level of degree-assortativity.

The degree assortativity coefficient of a ER graph is zero. The ER graph has no correlations.
