integer.edgelist function

Convert A Network to an Integer Edgelist

This function converts a character string edgelist into an integer edgelist.

integer.edgelist(network)

Arguments

• network: An edge list, which is a matrix or data frame with 2 or 3 columns. The first 2 columns contain the nodes that interact with each other, which can be character strings or integer values. The optional third column is a numerical vector of weights for each edge, which is stripped from the output.

• nodes: A named integer vector mapping node integer IDs to their character string equivalents.
