This function finds the length of a sound wave, known as the wavelength (m), or
frequency of a sound (Hz), given the identity of the input. The speed of sound is the default in
air (340 m/s). You may calculate your own value for c relative to the conditions present
in your ecosystem of study via soundSpeed().

A beginners toolbox to help those in ecology who want to deepen their understanding or utilize Bioacoustics in their work. The package has a number of utilizations from calculating frequency from waveform, performing operations in dB, and determining acoustic range of recorders. The majority of this package is based on key concepts learned from the K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at Cornell University and their associated course: Introduction to Bioacoustics course. More information can be found within the walk through vignettes at <https://github.com/MattyD797/bioSNR/tree/main/vignettes>.
