Parameters
----------
G : graph
A NetworkX graph.
sources: list of nodes
Nodes to use as sources for shortest paths in betweenness
targets: list of nodes
Nodes to use as targets for shortest paths in betweenness
normalized : bool, optional
If True the betweenness values are normalized by $2/((n-1)(n-2))$

The normalization might seem a little strange but it is the same

The normalization might seem a little strange but it is
designed to make betweenness_centrality(G) be the same as
betweenness_centrality_subset(G,sources=G.nodes(),targets=G.nodes()).
The total number of paths between source and target is counted
differently for directed and undirected graphs. Directed paths
are easy to count. Undirected paths are tricky: should a path
from "u" to "v" count as 1 undirected path or as 2 directed paths?
For betweenness_centrality we report the number of undirected
paths when G is undirected.
For betweenness_centrality_subset the reporting is different.
If the source and target subsets are the same, then we want
to count undirected paths. But if the source and target subsets
differ -- for example, if sources is {0} and targets is {1},
then we are only counting the paths in one direction. They are
undirected paths but we are counting them in a directed way.
To count them as undirected paths, each should count as half a path.
