In joshwlambert/DAISIEmainland: Simulates Data for Phylogenetic Data on Islands for DAISIE with the Addition of Mainland Dynamics

Check if a branching_times is valid.

Description

Check if a branching_times is valid. Will stop if not

Usage

check_branching_times(branching_times)

Arguments

branching_times

island age and stem age of the population/species in the case of Non-endemic, Non-endemic_MaxAge and Endemic anagenetic species. For cladogenetic species these should be island age and branching times of the radiation including the stem age of the radiation. See check_branching_times for a more detailed description.

Details

branching_times contains:

• for cladogenetic species: the island age and branching times of the radiation, including the stem age of the radiation

• for non-endemic, non-endemic_MaxAge and Endemic anagenetic species: island age and stem age of the population/species

A valid branching_times ...

• is numeric

• has only finite values

• has at least 1 element (which equals the island age)

• has only positive non-zero values (although zero is accepted, to prevent false negatives by rounding off errors)

• has a descending order

Value

nothing
