tsort: topological sort of vertices of a digraph

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References Examples

View source: R/interfaces.R

Description

returns vector of zero-based indices of vertices of a DAG in topological sort order

Usage

1
tsort(x) # now x assumed to be Bioconductor graph graphNEL

Arguments

x

instance of class graphNEL from Bioconductor graph class

Details

calls to the topological\_sort algorithm of BGL. will check in BGL whether the input is a DAG and return a vector of zeroes (of length length(nodes(x))) if it is not. Thus this function can be used to check for cycles in a digraph.

Value

A character vector of vertices in the topological sort sequence.
