FacebookCircles
Java program that uses a Facebook supplied data set to compute friendship statistics.
This program uses actual (anonymised) Facebook data, obtained from the SLN Dataset.
A Facebook friendship is an undirected relationship between two people. In this assignment we will consider that "my friend's friend is my friend"; i.e., that the friendship relationship is transitive. A Facebook user's circle of friends is the largest set of her friends. Note that two facebook users who are friends have the same circle of friends.
Methods
-
public FacebookCircles(int numberOfFacebookUsers): the constructor creates a new object of the class initialised to a fixed number of facebook users. Each user will be represented by an integer from 0 to numberOfFacebookUsers - 1.
-
public void friends( int user1, int user2 ): Declares that two users are friends.
-
public int numberOfCircles(): Returns the number of friendship circles.
-
public int sizeOfLargestCircle(): Returns the size of the the largest friendship circle.
-
public int sizeOfAverageCircle(): Returns the average size of the friendship circles. The average should be computed as (s1 + s2 + ... + sn) /n, where "/" is integer division.
-
public int sizeOfSmallestCircle(): Returns the size of the smallest friendship circle.
