# TotalCopheneticIndex

R package implementing the Total Cophenetic Index measure of Mir _et al._ (2013).

This package is now simply a wrapper for the function `TotalCopheneticIndex()`

in the package '[TreeTools](https://ms609.github.io/TreeTools/)'.

The total cophenetic index describes how balanced a phylogenetic tree is,

by measuring the how deep the most recent common ancestor of each pair of leaves

lies within the tree.

# See also

This functionality is now available via the function [`TotalCopheneticIndex()`](https://ms609.github.io/TreeTools/reference/TotalCopheneticIndex.html) in the

'[TreeTools](https://ms609.github.io/TreeTools/)' package, and via Rotger's

(unmaintained?) package 

'[CollessLike](https://github.com/LuciaRotger/CollessLike)'.
