Documentation for SLiM function mutationCounts, which is a method of the SLiM class Species. Note that the R function is a stub, it does not do anything in R (except bring up this documentation). It will only do anything useful when used inside a slim_block function further nested in a slim_script function call, where it will be translated into valid SLiM code as part of a full SLiM script.

mutationCounts(subpops, mutations)

Arguments

subpops

An object of type null or integer or Subpopulation object. See details for description.

mutations

An object of type null or Mutation object. The default value is NULL. See details for description.

Value

An object of type integer.

Details

Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page 721.

Return an integer vector with the frequency counts of all of the Mutation objects passed in mutations, within the Subpopulation objects in subpops. The subpops argument is required, but you may pass NULL to get population-wide frequency counts. Subpopulations may be supplied either as integer IDs, or as Subpopulation objects. If the optional mutations argument is NULL (the default), frequency counts will be returned for all of the active Mutation objects in the species - the same Mutation objects, and in the same order, as would be returned by the mutations property of sim, in other words. See the -mutationFrequencies() method to obtain float frequencies instead of integer counts. See also the Genome methods mutationCountsInGenomes() and mutationFrequenciesInGenomes().
