integer.edgelist: Convert A Network to an Integer Edgelist

In linkcomm: Tools for Generating, Visualizing, and Analysing Link Communities in Networks

Description

This function converts a character string edgelist into an integer edgelist.

Usage

integer.edgelist(network)

Arguments

network

An edge list, which is a matrix or data frame with 2 or 3 columns. The first 2 columns contain the nodes that interact with each other, which can be character strings or integer values. The optional third column is a numerical vector of weights for each edge, which is stripped from the output.

Value

A list containing the following components:

edges	A matrix with two columns containing the integer edgelist.
nodes	A named integer vector mapping node integer IDs to their character string equivalents.
