Usage

## S3 method for class 'tree'
plot(x, y = NULL, type = c("proportional", "uniform"), ...)

Arguments

x	an object of class "tree".
y	ignored. Used for positional matching of type.
type	character string. If this partially matches "uniform", the branches are of uniform length. Otherwise they are proportional to the decrease in impurity.
...	graphical parameters.
