All missing or unknown sites are discarded from the computations. The present function actually uses the function \code{base.freq}. } \value{ A single numeric value is returned. } \author{Emmanuel Paradis} \seealso{ \code{\link{base.freq}}, \code{\link{seg.sites}}, \code{\link{nuc.div}} } \keyword{univar}
