concorR (version 0.2.1)

plot_blk: Plot a blockmodel

Description

Displays a plot of a blockmodel. Based on plot.blockmodel (sna must be installed), but reformats the plot to be square and removes the mandatory title.

Usage

plot_blk(x, labels = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

An object of class blockmodel

labels

If TRUE, vertex ids are displayed as row/column/diagonal labels. If FALSE, no node labels are shown.

...

Further arguments passed to or from other methods

Value

Returns NULL, invisibly.

Details

This is a modification of the plot.blockmodel function. The original displays vertex ids as row, column, and diagonal labels, which can be unreadable for larger networks. plot.blockmodel also adds a title of the form "Relation - 1", which this version omits.
