A scale-free network is a type of network characterized by a degree distribution that follows a power law, meaning that a few nodes (or vertices) have a very high degree (many connections), while most nodes have relatively few connections. This property leads to networks that are robust to random failures but vulnerable to targeted attacks on highly connected nodes, making it an important concept in understanding the structure and function of various biological and social networks.
congrats on reading the definition of scale-free network. now let's actually learn it.
