delete.edges
removes one or more edges (specified by their internal ID numbers) from a network; delete.vertices
performs the same task for vertices (removing all associated edges in the process).
1 2 | delete.edges(x, eid)
delete.vertices(x, vid)
|
x |
an object of class |
eid |
a vector of edge IDs. |
vid |
a vector of vertex IDs. |
Note that an edge's ID number corresponds to its order within x$mel
. To determine edge IDs, see get.edgeIDs
. Likewise, vertex ID numbers reflect the order with which vertices are listed internally (e.g., the order of x$oel
and x$iel
, or that used by as.matrix.network.adjacency
). When vertices are removed from a network, all edges having those vertices as endpoints are removed as well. When edges are removed, the remaining edge ids are NOT permuted and NULL
elements will be left on the list of edges, which may complicate some functions that require eids (such as set.edge.attribute
). The function valid.eids
provides a means to determine the set of valid (non-NULL) edge ids.
Edges can also be added/removed via the extraction/replacement operators. See the associated man page for details.
