This repository contains the source file of the development version for the project of a stemmatology package for R. This package already contains functions for the PCC method as described in Camps & Cafiero 2015 (see below, section On the Method), and will implement as well other stemmatological methods (see roadmap at https://graal.hypotheses.org/925).

Installation

You can install stemmatology from CRAN, with:

install.packages("stemmatology")

or, alternatively, if you want the last version, you can install from Github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("Jean-Baptiste-Camps/stemmatology")

Utils

Conversion utils, including a TEI_app to csv conversion stylesheet, are available on another repository: https://github.com/Jean-Baptiste-Camps/stemmatology-utils.

Documentation and papers

For the documentation of the main functions, once you have loaded stemmatology, have a look at the R documentation, by typing

?'stemmatology-package'
