In kinship2: Pedigree Functions

Fix details on the parents for children of the pedigree

Description

Fix the sex of parents, add parents that are missing from the pedigree

Usage

fixParents(id, dadid, momid, sex, missid = 0)

Arguments

id	Identification variable for individual
dadid	Identification variable for father. Founders parents should be coded to NA, or another value specified by missid.
momid	Identification variable for mother. Founders parents should be coded to NA, or another value specified by missid.
sex	Gender of individual noted in 'id'. Either character ("male","female","unknown","terminated") or numeric (1="male", 2="female", 3="unknown", 4="terminated") data is allowed. For character data the string may be truncated, and of arbitrary case.
missid	The founders are those with no father or mother in the pedigree. The dadid and momid values for these subjects will either be NA or the value of this variable. The default for missid is 0 if the id variable is numeric, and "" (the empty string) otherwise.

Details

First look to add parents whose ids are given in momid/dadid. Second, fix sex of parents. Last look to add second parent for children for whom only one parent id is given.

Value

A data.frame with id, dadid, momid, sex as columns
