This function takes a matrix that is in data frame format and transforms it into a matrix. Other packages that allows you to obtain an additive relationship matrix from a pedigree is the `pedigreemm` package.
inverse of the pedigree transformed in a relationship matrix.
Arguments

column
name of the column in x that indicates the column in the original relationship matrix.
value
name of the column in x that indicates the value for a given row and column in the original relationship matrix.
