Examples

mu <- 0.5 # death rate
lambda <- 2.0 # birth rate
numb_replicates <- 10
numb_extant_tips <- 4
# simulate trees under the GSA so first simulates a tree with
# numb_extant_tips * 100 tips counting each time we have a tree with 10 tips
# then randomly picks one of those trees

tree_list <- sim_sptree_bdp(sbr = lambda,
                sdr = mu,
                numbsim = numb_replicates,
                n_tips = numb_extant_tips)
pruned <- drop_extinct(tree_list[[1]])
