Return all children edges from a node, or all edges connected to tips based on three different methods

Usage

getEdges(tree, node = NULL, tips = NULL, type = 1)

Arguments

tree	phylogenetic tree (ape class)
node	number indicating node
tips	tip labels or numbers
type	1, 2 or 3 indicating which method to use
