H-Index and ways to calculate it

The h-index may be a number intended to represent both the productivity and therefore the
impact of a specific scientist or scholar, or a gaggle of scientists or scholars (such as a
departmental or research group). In short, It is defined as the highest number of publications
of a scientist that received h or more citations each.

Calculation:

The h-index is calculated by counting the amount of publications that an author has been
cited by other authors a minimum of that very same number of times. For instance, an h-
index of 17 means that the scientist has published at least 17 papers that have each been
cited at least 17 times.
