PageRank - Wikipedia - Google Search  ## Metadata - Author: **Google Search** - Full Title: PageRank - Wikipedia - Category: #articles - URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank#Simplified_algorithm ## Highlights - Assume a small universe of four web pages: A, B, C, and D. Links from a page to itself are ignored. Multiple outbound links from one page to another page are treated as a single link. PageRank is initialized to the same value for all pages. In the original form of PageRank, the sum of PageRank over all pages was the total number of pages on the web at that time, so each page in this example would have an initial value of 1. However, later versions of PageRank, and the remainder of this section, assume a probability distribution between 0 and 1. Hence the initial value for each page in this example is 0.25. - Tags: #computer-science
