In butterflyology/ordiBreadth: Ordinated Diet Breadth

ordiBreadth

Repo for R package ordiBreadth (Fordyce et al. 2016 - Ecology) - a package to examine diet breadth through ordination.

Maintained by James Fordyce (University of Tennessee) and Chris Hamm (University of Kansas)

13 March 2016 - Initial commit

1. Begun development of vignette for importing a list of host associations and creating the presence / absence table.
2. Added the Nymphalidae data set as part of the base pacakge.
3. Walking through how to start with a data.frame of associations and convert it to presence / absence matrix.
4. We want to go from something like this:

| Plants | Herbivore | |:-------:|:---------:| | Apiaceae | Actinote | | Asteraceae | Adelpha | | Cannabaceae | Apaturopsis | | Cannabaceae | Euripus |

• Into something like this:

| | Apiaceae | Asteraceae | Cannabaceae | |:-------:|:---------:|:------:|:-------:| |Actinote| 1| 0| 0| | Adelpha| 0| 1| 0| |Apaturopsis| 0| 0| 1| |Euripus| 0| 0| 1|

Caught a typing inconsistency with the function null.breadth.focal. Was spelled "dis.method" and in the other function use "dist.method"

Next too add an option to dist.group.plot to allow plotting only points for plants.
