Method Detail

### setDimensionsNTax

    void setDimensionsNTax(int dimensionsNTax)

  Set the NTAX value.

  Parameters:
    `dimensionsNTax` - the NTAX value.

### setDimensionsNChar

    void setDimensionsNChar(int dimensionsNChar)

  Set the NCHAR value.

  Parameters:
    `dimensionsNChar` - the NCHAR value.

### setTriangle

    void setTriangle(String triangle)

### setDiagonal

    void setDiagonal(boolean diagonal)

### setLabels

    void setLabels(boolean labels)

### setMissing

    void setMissing(String missing)

### setInterleaved

    void setInterleaved(boolean interleaved)

### addTaxLabel

    void addTaxLabel(String taxLabel)
                     throws ParseException

  Add a TAXLABEL. If it already exists, or is a number that refers to an index position that already exists, an exception is thrown.

  Parameters:
    `taxLabel` - the label to add.
  Throws:
    `ParseException` - if the label cannot be added.

### addMatrixEntry

    void addMatrixEntry(String taxa)

### appendMatrixData

    void appendMatrixData(String taxa,
                          Object data)
