SimulExample {PHYLOGR}R Documentation

A simulated data set

Description

A simulated data set; the phylogeny is based in Bauwens and Diaz-Uriarte (1997), such as is included in the file ifsm.pdi (in the Examples directory). But the data are all completely fictitious and have nothing to do with lacertids (or, for that matter, with any other creatures).

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

sim.counter
the simulation counter
Tips
the name of tips; it matches those for the lacertid examples but, again, is unrelated to those
y
one numeric variable
x1
another numeric variable
x2
ditto
x3
ditto
x4
ditto
x5
guess what? same thing
x6
again
x7
once more
diet
a factor with fictitious levels Carnivore Herbivore Ommnivore
