Usage

## S3 method for class 'map'

summaryMap(object, ...)

Arguments

`object`	An object of class `map`, which is a list of vectors (or, for a sex-specific map, 2-row matrices), each specifying the locations of the markers. The object can also be of class `cross`, in which case the function `pull.map` is used to extract the genetic map from the object.
`...`	Ignored at this point.

Value

An object of class summary.map, which is just a data.frame containing the number of markers, length, the average inter-marker spacing, and the maximum distance between markers, for each chromosome and overall. An attribute sexsp indicates whether the map was sex-specific.
