cactus-pie
Python utilites and graphical front-end for comparative analyses
Dylan Schwilk
Cactus-pie is a rewrite and extension of my program for comparative analyses, CACTUS. The graphical front-end is incomplete and in alpha, but the modules that make up the backend provide several useful programs including the Divergence Order Test (DOT).
================================ README: cactus-pie/nexus ================================ :Author: Dylan Schwilk :Web Site::Date: $Date: 2005/1/18 $ :Version: 0.1 Background ============ Cactus-pie is a rewrite and extension of CACTUS: comparative analysis for continuous traits using statistics. Command-line programs available =============================== All of these modules provide functions/methods and also provide a command-line interface. All of these programs read data in NEXUS file format. For instructions and a list of options, use the '-h' option when calling the program. For example: type 'python dorder.py -h'. - icontrasts.py: Calculates independent contrasts. - dorder.py: Provides the Divergence Order Test (DOT) and Synchronized Changes Test (SvS). - branch_lengths.py: Assign branch lengths to a phylogeny according to several different possible algorithms. - cladelabel.py label clades in a phylogeny as defined by a taxa list in an auxilary file.
