  standard_mapping = NULL,
  filter_values = NULL
)

Value

The preprocessed dataframe.

Arguments

data

The dataframe containing urine sample data.

column_name

The name of the column containing organism names.

strings_to_remove

standard_mapping

A named character vector specifying mappings of values to standard ones.

filter_values

A character vector of values to be filtered out from the organism names.
