Usage

solarKinship2(df, dir, ...)

Arguments

df
A data frame that containts both phenotype and pedigree data. To be passed to df2solar function.
dir
(optional) A character with path to a directory, where SOLAR files to be created. If this argument is missing, a temporary folder is created and further removed, when the job is done. To be passed to df2solar function.
...
Additional arguments to be passed to df2solar.
