dendroextras (version 0.2.3)

colour_clusters: Colour sub-clusters of a tree (dendrogram/hclust) object

Description

The distinctive feature of this function is to colour both the terminal leaves of a cluster and the edges leading to those leaves. The edgePar attribute of nodes will be augmented by a new list item col. The groups will be defined by a call to slice using the k or h parameters.

Usage

colour_clusters(d, k = NULL, h = NULL, col = rainbow,
  groupLabels = NULL)
color_clusters(d, k = NULL, h = NULL, col = rainbow, groupLabels = NULL)

Arguments

d

A dendrogram or hclust tree object

k

number of groups (passed to slice)

h

height at which to cut tree (passed to slice)

col

Function or vector of colours

groupLabels

If TRUE add numeric group label - see Details for options

Value

a tree object of class dendrogram.

Details

If groupLabels=TRUE then numeric group labels will added to each cluster. If a vector is supplied then these entries will be used as the group labels. If a function is supplied then it will be passed a numeric vector of groups (e.g. 1:5) and must return the formatted group labels.
