The i-th element in the resulting vector is the clustering coefficient of the (i-1)-th vertex (note that vertices are indexed from zero in igraph up to 0.5.x), where the clustering coefficient is defined as the number of connected neighbor pairs of the vertex, divided by the total number of possible neighbor pairs.

Not applicable; the result is ordered by nodes and not by degree. > Q5: for the mean of cluster coeffcient, If I remove the NA, its change the > length of my vector so the mean, what is the correct mean in that case? You see NAs because the clustering coefficient is undefined for vertices with only one neighbour, since there are no neighbor pairs for that vertex. You can either replace the NAs with zeros or ignore them completely; it is up to you. There is no standard definition for the clustering coefficient in this case. Personally, I would use zeros, because a graph with many degree-1 vertices is definitely "less clustered" than a similar one with no degree-1 vertices.
