Network data capture social and economic behavior in a form that can be analyzed using computational tools. In this entry-level guide, algorithms for extracting information are derived in detail and summarized in pseudo-code. This book is intended primarily for computer scientists, engineers, statisticians, and physicists, but it is also accessible to social network scientists more broadly.
