Read how a Morphy Object handles the inapplicable token

Source: R/mpl_morphy_objects.R
GapHandler.Rd

Gaps represented by the inapplicable token can be treated as "missing data", i.e. as equivalent to the ambiguous token ?; as an extra state, equivalent to other states such as 0 or 1; or as "inapplicable data" using the algorithm of Brazeau, Guillerme and Smith (2019).

Usage

GapHandler(morphyObj)

Arguments

morphyObj

Object of class morphy, perhaps created with PhyDat2Morphy().

Value

GapHandler() returns a character string stating how gaps are handled by morphyObj.
