maxNrLoops: Maximum number of loops

In dswdejonge/fwstability: Infer Food-Web Stability

Maximum number of loops

Description

This function calculates the maximum number of loops, assuming full connectance.

Usage

maxNrLoops(n, k = NULL)

Arguments

n	(required) Integer. Number of network compartments.
k	(optional) Integer. Length of loop. Default NULL searches of loops of all length (k=2 to k = n).

Details

A fully connected network is assumed. The total number of loops of length k can be found as n! / (n - k)!. If k is not given the total number of possible loops (i.e. of length k = 2 to k = n) is found.

Value

Returns the maximum number of possible loops.
