pNode-class {Rgraphviz} | R Documentation

## Class "pNode": A class to plot nodes

### Description

This class is used to transfer information to Graphviz that is necessary to represent and plot a node.

### Details

The `attrs` slot is a named list, where the names correspond to attributes and the values in the list correspond to the value for that element's attribute.

The `subG` slot describes which subgraph this node is a part of. A value of `0` implies that the node is not a member of any subgraph.

### Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form `new("pNode", ...)`.

### Slots

`name`:
  Object of class `"character"`: The name of the node, used to reference the node.
`attrs`:
  Object of class `"list"`: A list of attributes specific to this node.
`subG`:
  Object of class `"integer"`: Which subgraph this node is a part of.

### Methods

name
  `signature(object = "pNode")`: Retrieves the `name` slot of the object.

### Examples

       set.seed(123)
       V <- letters[1:10]
       M <- 1:4
       g1 <- randomGraph(V, M, .2)

       z <- buildNodeList(g1)
       z[[1]]   ## Object of type pNode

       name(z[[1]])
