getnodesbyid (biograph)

Get handles to nodes

Syntax

NodesHandles = getnodesbyid(BGobj, NodeIDs)

Arguments

BGobj

Biograph object.

NodeIDs

Enter a cell string of node identifications.

Description

NodesHandles = getnodesbyid(BGobj, NodeIDs) gets the node handles for the specified nodes (NodeIDs).

Example

  1. Create a biograph object.

    species = {'Homosapiens','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo','Baboon',...
           'Macaca','Gibbon'};
cm = magic(7)>25 & 1-eye(7);
bg = biograph(cm, species)

  2. Find the handles to members of the Cercopithecidae family and members of the Hominidae family.

    Cercopithecidae = {'Macaca','Baboon'};
Hominidae = {'Homosapiens','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo'};
CercopithecidaeNodes = getnodesbyid(bg,Cercopithecidae);
HominidaeNodes = getnodesbyid(bg,Hominidae);

  3. Color the families differently and draw a graph.
