attrDataItem method provides get/set access to items stored
in a attrData-class object.
attrDataItem(self, x, attr)
attrDataItem(self, x, attr) <- valueattrData-class instancecharacter vector of item namescharacter vector of length 1 giving the attribute
name to get/set. Note that the attribute name must have already been
defined for the attrData object via
attrDefaults. If missing, return a list of all
attributes for the specified nodes.x.
If the length of value is the same as x, the
corresponding elements will be assigned. We will add an argument to
indicate that the value is to be taken as-is for those cases
where the lengths are the same coincidentally.
