Soccomp Experiment 1







Conclusion:

After doing Experiment 1 : Six Degrees of Separation with Center as Adi Napiza, me and my groupmates have concluded that the Six Degrees Separation is really true and possible. The degrees can even be lower than six if the center is really that popular. Unfortunately, our center didn't get that circle, that a random person will know him and will close the circle of the experiment. But we have known that many people still know our center because out of the many people that we interviewed only 3 doesn't know him.
