These functions return the depths or heights of nodes and tips.
node.depth(phy, method = 1)
node.depth.edgelength(phy)
node.height(phy, clado.style = FALSE)A numeric vector indexed with the node numbers of the matrix `edge' of
phy.
an object of class "phylo".
an integer value (1 or 2); 1: the node depths are proportional to the number of tips descending from each node, 2: they are evenly spaced.
a logical value; if TRUE, the node heights
are calculated for a cladogram.
Emmanuel Paradis
node.depth computes the depth of a node depending on the value
of method (see the option node.depth in
plot.phylo). The value of 1 is given to the tips.
node.depth.edgelength does the same but using branch lengths.
node.height computes the heights of nodes and tips as plotted
by a phylogram or a cladogram.
