Documentation for SLiM function setSelectionCoeff, which is a method of
the SLiM class Mutation.
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.
setSelectionCoeff(selectionCoeff)An object of type float. Must be of length 1 (a singleton). See details for description.
An object of type void or void.
Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page 705.
Set the selection coefficient of the mutation to selectionCoeff. The selection coefficient will be changed for all individuals that possess the mutation, since they all share a single Mutation object (note that the dominance coefficient will remain unchanged, as it is determined by the mutation type). This is normally a constant in simulations, so be sure you know what you are doing; often setting up a mutationEffect() callback (see section 26.2) is preferable, in order to modify the selection coefficient in a more limited and controlled fashion (see section 10.5 for further discussion of this point). Changing this will normally affect the fitness values calculated toward the end of the current tick; if you want current fitness values to be affected, you can call the Species method recalculateFitness() - but see the documentation of that method for caveats.
