There's some confusion here, I do believe my explanation means [25, 8, 5, 3, 3] has an h-index of 3.

  There are 5 scores with atleast 3 points. :P
  • arjie 11y ago
    Yes, if there are 5 scores with at least 3 points, then there are 3 scores with at least 3 points. Of course he left out the fact that the h-index is the largest number for which the property he mentioned holds true, but that was obvious.

    You seem to misunderstand h-index. :P It is the highest number h for which at least h articles have >= h citations.

    > So, ColinWright has 143 submissions with a score of 143 or more. I think the way OP wrote it was slightly unclear. This is clearer to me: So, ColinWright has 143 submissions with a score of at least 143 each.
