Hi, I am trying to compute degrecentrality. I amm getting the following error  
Error in degree(net2, mode = “in”) : unused argument (mode = “in”) when i use degree(net2, mode=“in”).  
I can compute other centralities such as Closeness and betweenness  
Any solution?  
Thanks

You have probably loaded another package which also provides a ` degree` function, masking igraphs’s `degree`. Use `igraph::degree`.
