Examples

trees <- list(BalancedTree(8), PectinateTree(8), StarTree(8))
TCIDiff <- function(tree1, tree2) {
  TotalCopheneticIndex(tree1) - TotalCopheneticIndex(tree2)
}
PairwiseDistances(trees, TCIDiff, 1)
TCIRange <- function(tree1, tree2) {
  range(TotalCopheneticIndex(tree1), TotalCopheneticIndex(tree2))
}
PairwiseDistances(trees, TCIRange, 2)
