RAM.rank.formatting: Taxonomic Rank Formatting
Description
In all RAM functions requiring the user to input a
taxonomic rank, three different formats for this taxon are
accepted. All of these formats are simple character vectors
(strings), and are provided for readability and convenience.
The user only needs to specify any single element from any of
the formats below. The formats are as follows:
- Format 1:
- "kingdom", "phylum", "class",
"order", "family", "genus", "species"
- Format 2:
- "k", "p", "c", "o", "f", "g", "s"
- Format 3:
- "k__", "p__", "c__", "o__",
"f__", "g__", "s__"
