To determine the degree of similarity between the two rankings we consider a metric based on how far away is one ranking from the other, that is, how many movements would it take to go from one ranking to the other.
Thus, when (p = 0) then (P S,V) = 1) and it means that rankings S and V are identical; a small value of p means that it only requires a few swaps to go from one ranking to the other, and we get a value of P S, V) close to one.
More formally, we define a swap to be the permutation of any two neighbouring elements on the list, and a metric to compare S and V can be constructed by counting the minimal number of swaps required to go from one ranking to the other.
Finally, when the number of swaps required to go from one ranking to the other is closer to (p = n n-1)/4), which is the middle between n-1 largest and the smallest amount of swhich then P(S, V) is closer the0. A simiddleprobetweenises when theing to compare the ranking provided by two different search engines Kumar and Vassilargesti (2010).
The maximum number of swaps would occur in the scenario where S and V provide the same order, but reversed, so that the first place of S is the last place of V and so on, and in that case we would require (n n-1)/2) swaps to go from on n-1nking to the other.

The rating on the foreign currency country ceiling for bank deposits was also reduced one rank to Aa1 from the top level, Moody's said.
The remaining countries are ordered based on the distance of their residual from the number one ranked country; the larger the difference in residuals from the number one country, the lower the country rank.
The victory puts Federer just one win away from retaining his world number one ranking for a record 300th week, and sets up a third round meeting with his doubles partner, thirteenth ranked Stanislas Wawrinka, who needed three sets to take out Uzbekistan's Denis Istomin, 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.
