list2chain: transforms a consistent list into a new chain object

In prr: generalized probabilistic range ranker

Description

Just analyzing the components of the list (consistent names have to be used) which are supposed to be character and tackle them to produce consistent slots of a /des/ object and /nod/ objects. The main use of this function is to generate chains read from text files with the function read8chain.

Usage

list2chain(li, chaind=1, nod=bf(li)[-1])

Arguments

li	The list to be transformed into a chain object. The chaind-th component must be the description of the bn; the nod components are supposed to be the nodes.
chaind	the number of the li component to be interpreted as the description of the chain.
nod	the numbers of the li to be considered as defining a node (in the right order).

Details

Be aware that the node must be given in a compatible order with the sequential construction of the chain, that is parents before children.

Value

The generated /chain/ object

Examples

 prr3k("RESET"); # (only for R checking)
 print(list2chain(chain2list(prr.chain1)));
