Overview

The phylozoo.core.quartet module provides data structures for working with quartets, which are four-taxon unrooted trees that serve as building blocks for many concepts in phylogenetic analysis.

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

from phylozoo.core.quartet import *
# or directly
from phylozoo.core.quartet import Quartet, QuartetProfile, QuartetProfileSet

Classes

• Quartet - Single quartet topologies

• Quartet Profile - Set of quartets on the same 4-taxon set with weights

• Quartet Profile Set - Collections of quartet profiles
