This term adds one network statistic to the model for each value of k ,
corresponding to the number of k -cycles (or, alternately, semicycles)
in the graph.
This term can be used with either directed or undirected networks.
# binary: cycle(k, semi=FALSE)a vector of integers giving the cycle lengths to count.
Directed cycle lengths may range from 2 to N (the network size); undirected
cycle lengths and semicycle lengths may range from 3 to N ; length 2 semicycles
are not currently supported.
an optional logical indicating whether semicycles (rather than directed cycles) should be counted; this is ignored in the undirected case.
2-cycles are equivalent to mutual dyads.
