calcFrPrp: Calculate evolutionary distinctness

Description

Returns the evolutationary distinctness of ids using the fair proportion metric.

Usage

calcFrPrp(tree, tids, progress = "none")

Arguments

tree

TreeMan object

tids

tip IDs

progress

name of the progress bar to use, see create_progress_bar

Details

The fair proportion metric calculates the evolutionary distinctness of tips in a tree through summing the total amount of branch length each tip represents, where each branch in the tree is evenly divided between all descendants. Parallelizable.
