## Appendix
### What is the "2-hop-link"?
[2-hop-link] are outgoing links in the current file, and files that have outgoing links to them.
For example, If there are relations as follows,
```mermaid
flowchart LR
D[Dog] --> A[Animal]
C[Cat] --> A
O[Owl] --> A
```
[2-hop-link] from the "Dog" is as follows.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
D[Dog]:::focus --> A[Animal]
D[Dog]:::focus --> C[Cat]
D[Dog]:::focus --> O[Owl]
classDef focus fill:#f96
```
More complicated example.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
Dog:::focus --> Animal
Dog --> Masaru
Zagitova --> Masaru
Masaru --> Akita-inu
Cat --> Animal
Owl --> Animal
Tama --> Cat
Mike --> Cat
Animal --> Zoo
Zoo --> Animal
Mahjong --> Zoo
Animal --> Coffee
classDef focus fill:#f96
```
[2-hop-link] from the "Dog" is as follows.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
Dog:::focus --> Animal:::focus
Dog --> Masaru:::focus
Zagitova:::focus --> Masaru
Masaru --> Akita-inu
Cat:::focus --> Animal
Owl:::focus --> Animal
Tama --> Cat
Mike --> Cat
Animal --> Zoo
Zoo:::focus --> Animal
Mahjong --> Zoo
Animal --> Coffee
classDef focus fill:#f96
