Newick format in R studio

[madsenm...@appstate.edu]

Hi Will,

I hope this isn't too off topic, it's just the current impediment to using PhyloGenerator..

As a response to the previous comment on unrooting trees in R, could you explain how to import the newick format as a dataset in R studio? The read.tree command gives me this error:
Error in scan(file = file, what = "", sep = "\n", quiet = TRUE, skip = skip, : 'file' must be a character string or connection

Any response is helpful!

Many thanks,

Tesa

P.s. PhyloGenerator is solving all of my problems (If I get it to work)- thanks!!
