Abstract
A Java algorithm to statistically compare between-network structure difference was developed. In this algorithm, Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, Chebyshov distance, and Pearson correlation were available to measure between-network difference. The algorithm was tested and applied for its effectiveness with some arthropod and weed networks.

Keywords network; structure; non-parametric statistic test; comparison; Java algorithm.
