stat2dist: Convert Vector to Distance
In jfq3/QsNullModels: My null model functions

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s)

This function converts a vector of distances into a distance matrix.

1	stat2dist(com, stat, diagonal = TRUE)

`com`	The community matrix for which the vector of distances was calculated.
`stat`	One of the statistics from the ecosimu function: statistic, mean.
`diagonal`	A logical determining if distance matrix is square or without upper half and diagonal.

The oecosimu function in vegan may be used to calculate the observed distances for a community matrix and the expected distances based on a null model, but the output is in the form of vectors. This function converts such vectors into a distance object that may be used for ordination or clustering of samples. In the oecosimu output, statistic is the observed value and mean is the expected value based on the null model.

A distance matrix.
