Hello colleagues! There is such a task. Let's say there is a post on VKontakte that interested me, and 3,000 people reposted it. After that, it was reposted by one of the friends of these people (second level), etc. It is necessary to determine:
- how many people reposted in total
- how many people in this community reposted at the very initial level
