append_edge_lists(...)

Arguments

• ...: one or several edge lists data.frame. Outputs of the function create_edge_list().

Returns

• from: the node label of one of the two endpoints of the edge
• to: the node label of the other endpoint of the edge

Examples

library("chessboard")

# Two-dimensional sampling (only) ----
sites_infos <- expand.grid("transect" = 1:3, "quadrat" = 1:5)

nodes <- create_node_labels(data     = sites_infos, 
                            transect = "transect", 
                            quadrat  = "quadrat")

edges_1 <- create_edge_list(nodes, method = "pawn", directed = TRUE)
edges_2 <- create_edge_list(nodes, method = "bishop", directed = TRUE)

edges <- append_edge_lists(edges_1, edges_2)
