👉 The Degrees Weapon, also known as the Degrees of Separation or Degrees of Connectivity, is a concept in social network theory that quantifies the minimum number of intermediaries required to connect any two individuals within a network. It measures how interconnected people are in a social graph, with the idea that in a fully connected network, any two individuals can be linked through no more than five mutual acquaintances. This metric is often used to analyze and understand the structure and efficiency of social networks, revealing how tightly knit or loosely connected a community is.
