TrivialSplits

Identify and remove trivial splits

Description

TrivialSplits() identifies trivial splits (which separate one or zero leaves from all others); WithoutTrivialSplits() removes them from a Splits object.

Usage

TrivialSplits(splits, nTip = attr(splits, "nTip"))

WithoutTrivialSplits(splits, nTip = attr(splits, "nTip"))

Arguments

`splits`	An object of class `Splits`.
`nTip`	Integer specifying number of tips (leaves).

Value

TrivialSplits() returns a logical vector specifying whether each split in splits is trivial, i.e. includes or excludes only a single tip or no tips at all.

WithoutTrivialSplits() returns a Splits object with trivial splits removed.
