Overview

The phylozoo.core.network.dnetwork module provides classes and functions for working with directed phylogenetic networks. Directed networks are rooted networks where all edges are directed, explicitly representing the direction of evolutionary time. Note that these are often also referred to as rooted phylogenetic networks. A rooted phylogenetic tree is a special case of a directed phylogenetic network.

All classes and functions on this page can be imported from the dnetwork module:

from phylozoo.core.network.dnetwork import *
# or directly
from phylozoo.core.network.dnetwork import DirectedPhyNetwork

Tip

For convenience, you can also use the alias phylozoo.core.dnetwork instead of phylozoo.core.network.dnetwork. Both import paths work identically.
