Trees are sorted by their mixed base representation, treating their leaves in the order of their labels (i.e. alphabetically, if leaves are labelled with text).

# S3 method for class 'multiPhylo'
sort(x, decreasing = FALSE, na.last = NA, ...)

# S3 method for class 'phylo'
e1 == e2

# S3 method for class 'phylo'
e1 < e2

# S3 method for class 'phylo'
e1 > e2

# S3 method for class 'MixedBase'
e1 == e2

# S3 method for class 'MixedBase'
e1 < e2

# S3 method for class 'MixedBase'
e1 > e2

Arguments

x, decreasing, na.last, ...

As in sort().

e1, e2

Objects to be compared.

Examples

sort(as.phylo(5:0, 7))
#> 6 phylogenetic trees
