Overview of networks statistics.

	Long-range	Sampled Long-range	Short-range
Number of interactions	1 472 094	269 094	269 094
Number of links	42 838	26 511 ± 68	13 474
Avg. link weight	34.36	10.15	19.97
Number of nodes	464	464	464

The number of interactions is, by definition, the same in the short-range and sampled long-range networks. Those interactions, however, end up distributed on different number of links, resulting in a slight variation in the average link weight. Similarly, the number of links differs slightly across different realizations of the sampled long-range network, here shown as ±standard deviation. The number of nodes (students) is the same in all three networks.
