All Superinterfaces:

Node, java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

PositionedNode, SimpleNode
```
public interface AttributeNode
extends Node
```
interface for a node (includes branch) in a binary/non-binary rooted/unrooted tree. Unlike its superclass this node can have an arbitrary number of named attributes associated with it.
