Documentation for SLiM function positionsOfMutationsOfType, which is a method of the SLiM class Genome. 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.

positionsOfMutationsOfType(mutType)

Arguments

mutType

An object of type integer or MutationType object. Must be of length 1 (a singleton). See details for description.

Value

An object of type integer.

Details

Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page 674.

Returns the positions of mutations that are of the type specified by mutType, out of all of the mutations in the genome. If you need a vector of the matching Mutation objects, rather than just positions, use -mutationsOfType(). This method is provided for speed; it is much faster than the corresponding Eidos code.
