Currently this library provides three algorithms:

- [UPGMA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UPGMA) and
  [Nieghbor-Joining](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbor_joining) for
  constructing a phylogeny from a distance matrix.
- [Robinson-Foulds
  metric](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robinson%E2%80%93Foulds_metric) for
  computing a distance between to phylogenetic trees.

Documentation is at https://docs.rs/phylogeny.

This package is inspired by [rust-bio](https://github.com/rust-bio/rust-bio), which you
should also check out.

**This package is not stable.**
