makeTwins A function to impute twins in the simulated pedigree data.frame. Twins can be imputed by specifying their IDs or by specifying the generation the twin should be imputed. This is a supplementary function for simulatePedigree.

Description

makeTwins A function to impute twins in the simulated pedigree data.frame. Twins can be imputed by specifying their IDs or by specifying the generation the twin should be imputed. This is a supplementary function for simulatePedigree.

Usage

makeTwins(
  ped,
  ID_twin1 = NA_integer_,
  ID_twin2 = NA_integer_,
  gen_twin = 2,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

ped	A data.frame in the same format as the output of simulatePedigree.
ID_twin1	A vector of ID of the first twin.
ID_twin2	A vector of ID of the second twin.
gen_twin	A vector of generation of the twin to be imputed.
verbose	logical. If TRUE, print progress through stages of algorithm

Value

Returns a data.frame with MZ twins information added as a new column.
