c(..., recursive = FALSE)

Arguments

x

An object to be coerced.

...

Additional arguments passed to the underlying coercion method. For c(...), the clusters and cluster nodes to be combined.

recursive

Not used.

Value

An object of class cluster.

c(...) combine multiple clusters and / or cluster nodes into one cluster returned as an of class cluster. A warning will be produced if there are duplicated nodes in the resulting cluster.
