  • ImposeConstraint() reconciles a tree with a constraint
  • SiteConcordance() calculates exact site concordance
  • ConcordantInformation() evaluates signal:noise of dataset implied by a given tree
  • PrepareDataProfile() simplifies dataset to allow partial search when multiple applicable tokens are present
  • Resample() conducts bootstrap and jackknife resampling
  • Consistency() calculates consistency and retention 'indices'
  • MinimumLength() calculates minimum length of character in a dataset on any tree.

Improvements

  • TreeLength() supports lists of trees
  • Set handling of 'gap' token (-) when creating Morphy object with gap =
