UnshiftTree()
adds a phylogenetic tree to the start of a list of trees.
This is useful where the class of a list of trees is unknown, or where
names of trees should be retained.
UnshiftTree(add, treeList)
Tree to add to the list, of class phylo
.
A list of trees, of class list
,
multiPhylo
, or, if a single tree,
phylo
.
UnshiftTree()
returns a list of class list
or multiPhylo
(following the original class of treeList
), whose first element is the
tree specified as `add.
Caution: adding a tree to a multiPhylo
object whose own attributes apply
to all trees, for example trees read from a Nexus file, causes data to be
lost.
c()
joins a tree or series of trees to a multiPhylo
object, but loses
names and does not handle lists of trees.
forest <- as.phylo(0:5, 6)
tree <- BalancedTree(6)
UnshiftTree(tree, forest)
#> 7 phylogenetic trees
UnshiftTree(tree, tree)
#> 2 phylogenetic trees
