add.vertices
adds a specified number of vertices to an existing network; if desired, attributes for the new vertices may be specified as well.
1 | add.vertices(x, nv, vattr = NULL, last.mode = TRUE, ...)
|
x |
an object of class |
nv |
the number of vertices to add |
vattr |
optionally, a list of attributes with one entry per new vertex |
last.mode |
logical; should the new vertices be added to the last (rather than the first) mode of a bipartite network? |
... |
possible additional arguments to add.vertices |
New vertices are generally appended to the end of the network (i.e., their vertex IDs begin with network.size(x)
an count upward). The one exception to this rule is when x
is bipartite and last.mode==FALSE
. In this case, new vertices are added to the end of the first mode, with existing second-mode vertices being permuted upward in ID. (x
's bipartite
attribute is adjusted accordingly.)
Note that the attribute format used here is based on the internal (vertex-wise) storage method, as opposed to the attribute-wise format used by network
. Specifically, vattr
should be a list with one entry per new vertex, the ith element of which should be a list with an element for every attribute of the ith vertex. (If the required na
attribute is not given, it will be automatically created.)
Invisibly, a pointer to the updated network
object; add.vertices
modifies its argument in place.
add.vertices
was converted to an S3 generic funtion in version 1.9, so it actually calls add.vertices.network
by default and may call other versions depending on context (i.e. when called with a networkDynamic
object).
