The $2$-admissibility of a graph is a promising measure to identify real-world networks which have an algorithmically favourable structure. In contrast to other related measures, like the weak/strong $2$-colouring numbers or the maximum density of graphs that appear as $1$-subdivisions, the $2$-admissibility can be computed in polynomial time. However, so far these results are theoretical only and no practical implementation to compute the $2$-admissibility exists. Here we present an algorithm which decides whether the $2$-admissibility of an input graph G is at most p in time O(p⁴ |V(G)|) and space O(|E(G)| + p²). The simple structure of the algorithm makes it easy to implement. We evaluate our implementation on a corpus of 214 real-world networks and find that the algorithm runs efficiently even on networks with millions of edges, that it has a low memory footprint, and that indeed many networks have a small $2$-admissibility.
