Installation

There is currently no package available for effective size and constraint measures for bipartite networks on CRAN. It is possible to download the package through GitHub instead.

First, make sure the devtools package is installed.

if(!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools")

This only has to be done if devtools is not already installed and only has to be done once.

Then, use the install_github() function from devtools to install the package.

library(devtools)
install_github("sangwonhan3083/bipnet", dependencies = TRUE, ref = "master")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(bipnet)
