Get ids of the children of some taxa

Description

Get ids of the children of some taxa

Usage

children(taxon_ids, taxo, simplify = TRUE)

Arguments

taxon_ids

internal, numeric ids of the taxa.

taxo

a taxonomy data.frame, typically from extract_taxo().

simplify

when taxon_ids contains only one taxon and simplify is TRUE, return the vector of ids of the children directly, not a list of length one.

Details

The function works per taxon but is vectorised over taxon_ids.

Value

A list of vectors of taxon ids, as long as the input, containing the ids of the children of each element in taxon_ids.

print(as.Node(taxo), "id")
children(3, taxo)
children(1:4, taxo)
children(c(5, NA), taxo)
