In phylosim: Flexible Simulations of Biological Sequence Evolution

Description

Set the position of the Site object associated to an Event object.

The position field is usually not modified directly, but set by the getEvents.Sequence method. The position is *not* set by Site methods as getEventsAtSite.Site.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'Event'
setPosition(this, value, ...)

Arguments

this	An Event object.
value	The position.
...	Not used.

Value

Examples

	# Note: the following example is not too useful

	# create a sequence and attach a process
	s<-NucleotideSequence(string="ATGC",processes=list(list(JC69())))
	# get the first active event from the first site
	e<-getEvents(s,1)[[1]]
	# get event position
	e$position
	# set the position of the site associated with e
	setPosition(e,2)
	# get position via virtual field
	e$position
	# set position via virtual field
	e$position<-1
	e$position
