Calculating h-indexes using Ruby
Calculating citation h-indexes using Ruby
The h-index is a way to measure the relative importance of a scholarly author or journal based on the number of citations each of their articles has garnered. I wanted to calculate some h-indexes using citation data we had at work and compare the results with those reported by Google Scholar. In order to do this I wrote a little ruby class, so I thought I might as well share it on github.
