match_tree_edges: Edge matching function
In Claddis: Measuring Morphological Diversity and Evolutionary Tempo

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) Examples

Given two trees where one is a pruned version of the other gives matching edges and nodes of pruned tree to original tree.

1	match_tree_edges(original_tree, pruned_tree)

`original_tree`	A tree in phylo format.
`pruned_tree`	A tree in phylo format that represents a pruned version of `original_tree`.

Finds matching edge(s) and node(s) for a pruned tree in the original tree from which it was created. This is intended as an internal function, but may be of use to someone.

`matching_edges`	A list of the matching edges.
`matching_nodes`	A matrix of matching node numbers.
`removed_edges`	A vector of the removed edges.

# Create a random 10-taxon tree:
original_tree <- ape::rtree(n = 10)

# Remove three leaves:
pruned_tree <- ape::drop.tip(phy = original_tree, tip = c("t1", "t3", "t8"))

# Find matching edges:
X <- match_tree_edges(original_tree, pruned_tree)

# Show matching edges:
X$matching_edges

# Show matching nodes:
X$matching_nodes

# Show removed edges:
X$removed_edges
