Definition The degree graph theory degree of a node in a network sometimes referred to incorrectly as the Connectivity graph theory connectivity is the number of connections or Edge graph theory Graph edges the node has to other nodes. If a network is directed graph directed , meaning that edges point in one direction from one node to another node, then nodes have two different degrees, the in degree, which is the number of incoming edges, and the out degree, which is the number of outgoing edges. The degree distribution P k of a network is then defined to be the fraction of nodes in the network with degree k . Thus if there are n nodes in total in a network and n sub k sub of them have degree k , we have P k n sub k sub n . The same information is also sometimes presented in the form of a cumulative degree distribution , the fraction of nodes with degree greater than or equal to k .

An external degree is a Academic degreedegree offered by a university to students who have not been required to be physically present within the geographic territory of the institution. These undergraduates may be called external students and may study at classes unconnected with the university, or independently, or by distance learning . They may obtain the degree by passing examinations once they have reached the required standard, or by having successfully completed a programme put together from various courses or modules. In 1858 the University of London became the first English university to offer external degrees, holding exams open to people in other cities, or to London students who had attended evening classes. In various UK towns university college s were established, where students could study towards a London external degree. The colleges were among the approved centres for London s exams. Soon centres overseas were approved, starting with one in Mauritius in 1865.

Unreferenced date December 2009 In astrology , the anaretic degree is the final degree of any sign, which is 29 degrees 0 minutes to 29 degrees 59 minutes. Some modern theorists include the last two degrees. This degree or range is considered to be critical, so any planets, angles or celestial bodies placed within that range are likely to display the most extreme attributes of the sign or planet. Generally, when a planet is posited an anaretic degree, the planet will stand out. It is taking up the rear , usually being the planet in the chart with the highest degree value. This is not always negative, though it s generally portrayed as such. An example of how the anaretic degree can pose problems is in horary astrology . When one casts a chart based upon a question, if any planet or celestial body is placed in the last dwad of the sign then it is said that the outcome of the question has already been assured, and there is nothing the querent can do to alter the outcome. In horary, one of the strictures against judgment is when the ascendant is in the last three degrees of a sign or the first three degrees of a sign, which would include the anaretic degree or degrees. Another area where the anaretic degree plays an important role is that in wedding charts. In Helen Adams Garrett s book on the anaretic degree, she stated that the anaretic degree is usually found somewhere in the charts of couples who later divorce. However, the divorce rate being what it is, it might be possible to assess the potential cause of disagreement in advance and work that out through astrological counseling. The concept of anaretic is associated with the concept of void of course.

Grammatical categories In English grammar, the degree of comparison of an adjective or adverb describes the relational value of one thing with something in another clause of a sentence. An adjective may simply describe a quality, the positive it may compare the quality with that of another of its kind comparative degree and it may compare the quality with many or all others superlative degree . ref Tom McArthur, ed. 1992 The Oxford Companion to the English Language , Oxford University Press. ISBN 0 19 214183 X ref In other languages it may describe a very large degree of a particular quality in Semitic linguistics, called an Elative gradation elative . The degree of comparison may be expressed morphology linguistics morphologically or syntax syntactically . In English, for example, most monosyllabic and some disyllabic adjectives have morphological degrees of comparison green positive , greener comparative , greenest superlative pretty , prettier , prettiest while most polysyllabic adjectives use syntax complex , more complex , most complex . The positive degree is the most basic form of the adjective, positive because it does not relate to any superior or inferior qualities of other things in speech. The comparative degree denotes a greater amount of a quality relative to something else. The phrase Anna is taller than her father means that Anna s degree of tallness is greater than her father s degree of tallness. The superlative degree denotes the most, the largest, etc., by which it differs from other things. Rhetorical use of unbalanced comparatives In some contexts, such as advertising or political speeches, absolute and relative comparatives are intentionally employed in a way that invites a comparison, and yet the basis of comparison is not established. This is a common rhetorical device used to create an implication of significance where one may not actually be present ... title Comparatives Versus Superlatives first Bonnie last Trenga date 12 August 2008 work ... more details

Zero Degree is a Post modernism postmodern lipogrammatic novel written in 1998 by Tamil author Charu Nivedita , later translated into Malayalam and English. The novel uses a non linear narrative structure and often shockingly sexual and or violent content, jumping between phone sex conversations, torture scenes which seem to allude to the custodial treatment of Sri Lanka n refugees , love poems, chapters set in Rwanda during the Rwandan civil war civil war , and accounts of an immortal with a penis several meters long, who performs complex rites of black magic in order to find an Aryan yoni . Keeping with the numerological theme of Zero Degree, the only numbers expressed in either words or symbols are numerologically equivalent to nine with the exception of two chapters . This oulipo Oulipian ban includes the very common word one. Many sections of the book are written entirely without punctuation, or using only periods. Reaction When it appeared, Zero Degree was more experimental by far than any previously published book in Tamil, and generated a fair amount of buzz. When the Malayalam translation came out in 1999, with a forward by prominent Malayalam writer Paul Zacharia ,it surprised many Malayalam readers who had thought of their own contemporary literature scene as more radical than that in Tamil. The English translation, by Pritham K. Chakravarthy and Rakesh Khanna, was one of the first releases of Chennai based Blaft Publications in 2008.

A low degree of ionization is sometimes called partially ionized , and a very high degree of ionization as fully ionized . Ionization refers to the process whereby an atom or molecule loses an electron , resulting in two oppositely charged particles, 1 a negatively charged electron and 2 a positively charged ion . Chemistry usage The degree of ionization , or , is a way of representing the strength of an acid, often represented by the Greek letter alpha. It is defined as the ratio between the number of ionized molecules and the number of molecules dissolved in water. It can be represented as a decimal number or as a percentage.

Unreferenced date December 2009 The degree of parallelism DOP is a metric which indicates how many Instruction computer science operations can be or are being simultaneously executed by a computer. It is especially useful for describing the performance of Parallel programming model parallel programs and Parallel computing multi processor systems. A program running on a parallel computer may utilise different numbers of processors at different times. For each time period, the number of processors used to execute a program is defined as the degree of parallelism. The plot of the DOP as a function of time for a given program is called the parallelism profile . maximum degree of parallelism number of bits in a word X number of words processed in parallel DEFAULTSORT Degree Of Parallelism Category Instruction processing Comp sci stub ... more details

A square degree is a non SI Units of measurement unit measure of solid angle . It is denoted in various ways, including deg sup 2 sup , sq.deg. and . Just as degree angle degree s are used to measure parts of a circle, square degrees are used to measure parts of a sphere . Analogous to one degree being equal to 180 radians, a square degree is equal to 180 sup 2 sup or about 1 3283 steradian . The number of square degrees in a whole sphere is math 4 pi left frac 180 pi right 2 frac 129 ,600 pi , math or approximately 41,253 deg sup 2 sup . This is the total area of the 88 constellations in the list of constellations by area . For example, observed from the surface of the Earth , the Moon has a diameter of approximately 0.5 , so it covers a solid angle of approximately 0.196 deg sup 2 sup , which is 4.8 10 sup &minus 6 sup of the total sky sphere.
