init.simulate.StateAndExp: Initialize state and expectation matrices

Description

Function used in simulate for BM/OU initialisations.

Usage

init.simulate.StateAndExp(phy, p, root.state, simulate_random)

Arguments

root.state
(list): state of the root, with: random : random state (TRUE) or deterministic state (FALSE) value.root : if deterministic, value of the character at the root exp.root : if random, expectation of the character at the root var.root : if random, variance of the character at the root (pxp matrix)
phy:
Input tree.
p:
dimension of the trait simulated

Value

paramSimu: array p x nNodes x 2 (BM), filled with NAs. Slice paramSimu[, ntaxa + 1, ] (array p x 2) is initialized with simulated states and root expectarions for all the traits.
