Writing Project 44:

PageRank I

This project uses Google's PageRank as explained here. Investigate the pageranks of a small web with 6 webpages A, B, C, D, E, F, where page A links to pages B, E, and F, page B links to page C, page C links to page D, page D links to page A, page E links to page F, and page F links to page D. How does the ranking change for different factor m? Try to interpret the results obtained from this small example.
