## get attributes from the dendrogram's root(!) branches

### Description

get attributes from the dendrogram's root(!) branches

### Usage

    get_root_branches_attr(dend, the_attr, warn = dendextend_options("warn"), ...)

### Arguments

`dend` | dendrogram object
`the_attr` | the attribute to get from the branches (for example "height")
`warn` | logical (default from dendextend_options("warn") is FALSE). Set if warning are to be issued, it is safer to keep this at TRUE, but for keeping the noise down, the default is FALSE. Should a warning be printed when the function is used on an object which is NOT a dendrogram.
`...` | passed on to attr

### Value

The attributes of the branches (often two) of the dendrogram's root

### See Also

### Examples

    hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests[2:9,]), "com")
    dend <- as.dendrogram(hc)

    get_root_branches_attr(dend, "height") # 0.00000 71.96247
    # plot(dend)
    str(dend, 2)
