Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

Bioconductor graph edges are named, i.e., A~B. The same edge in the Cytoscape domain would be 'A (<edgeType>) B', where '<edgeType>' might be 'phosphorylates' or 'represses'.

1	cy2.edge.names(graph, R.edge.names=NA)

`graph`	An R graph
`R.edge.names`	one or more R graph-style edge names. default NA, in which case all edges in the graph are translated to cy2-style.

A named list, in with Cytoscape edges names are the content, and bioc graph edge names are their names.
