Number of lineages — nLineages • condiments

Return the number of lineages for a slingshot object

nLineages(sds, ...)

# S4 method for SingleCellExperiment
nLineages(sds)

# S4 method for SlingshotDataSet
nLineages(sds)

# S4 method for PseudotimeOrdering
nLineages(sds)

Arguments

sds	A slingshot object already run on the full dataset. Can be either a `SlingshotDataSet` or a `SingleCellExperiment` object.
...	parameters including:

Value

The number of lineages in the slingshot object

Examples

data(list = 'slingshotExample', package = "slingshot")
if (!"cl" %in% ls()) {
  rd <- slingshotExample$rd
  cl <- slingshotExample$cl
}
sds <- slingshot::slingshot(rd, cl)
