nwduplicate
Duplicate a network
Syntax
nwduplicate
[netname]
[,
name(newnetname)
replace]
name(newnetname) |
name of the new network |
replace |
if a network named newnetname already exists, drop it and use this name anyway (see nwset for the same convention) |
Description
nwduplicate simply duplicates an existing network netname. By default, the duplicated network is called netname_copy. It also duplicates the node labels of the original network.
For example:
- . nwwebuse florentine, nwclear
- . nwduplicate flomarriage
- . nwname flomarriage_copy
- . return list
Supported network types
Binary: yes. Directed: yes. Weighted: yes. Signed: yes - a full, generic copy of the network object (adjacency matrix, node labels, directed/valued/two-mode status, and mode assignments), independent of any of these properties. Two-mode: yes - the copy keeps the flag, the modes and the level labels.
